The extra mile. That’s what makes a sports team better. The school can only hire the best coach, there is a fantastic field and new and returning players to bring triumph back into the fan’s lives. Now they have the dedication.

This year, the upcoming football members are participating in extra weight training on top of their already extensive training. The off-season is when the team makes the most gains in terms of individual fitness, only when the team comes back together in the Summer and Fall do they learn to work as a team again.

The 50-60 football hopefuls are all encouraged by the coaches to participate in weight training. Junior Marcus Denham said their goal every year is to win states and he can only hope this year they do just that.

With running, and lifting, bonding, and practice the Rams are on their way.
