Some of the weights in the weightroom illuminated from above by a window.

I was a member of the Charter class of the high school and after college returned to coach Varsity Offensive Line for my Alma Mater. A job I have done for the last 10 years. Many athletes have shed blood, sweat and tears in this weightroom. Some of the more illustrious athletes have been Heisman Trophy winner QB-Carson Palmer (USC, Cincinatti Bengals), Walter Payton Award winner WR-Brian Finneran (Villanova, Atlanta Falcons), Outland Trophy winner OL-Kris Farris (UCLA, Buffalo Bills) as well as almost 100 other future college athletes. So many memories. So much dedication and sacrifice. So many lessons taught and learned. I hope they all remember what all of the hard work was for and why we learn to forge ahead while others turn back.
