But I found it didn't make any difference. No one took it easy on Jeffrie and he didn't take it easy on anyone. <br>Baseball presented it s own unique set of challenges. Jeffrie said,  I went to my doctor in Mobile and told him I was having trouble playing baseball. He went through some magazines and found a contraption with an  O ring. We attached it to the bat. Some modifications were made throughout the season; and years. Jeffrie became a starter on the baseball team. His dad preferred baseball because of the lack of contact.<br>Last year he batted .435 and hit two homeruns. Early in the season this year, Jeffrie was batting .370 with 13 runs scored and 12 RBI s. Clay Tew, head baseball coach at Southern Choctaw, got emotional.  Jeffrie started every game at left field all four years. I thought there was no way humanly possible. We are so blessed just to be around Jeffrie because of what he has done and how he has accepted it. No one has ever touched my life like Jeffrie. <br>Coach Boykin added another thought,  Another kid in our school broke his neck while another lost an eye. They used Jeffrie as a role model. They both worked extra hard and both returned to sports.<br> Jeffrie has inspired even community members with disabilities. And as far as our State Championship team? - we've had better talent but not another team with so much determination and dedication. <br>Jeffrie is also a good student. He is always in school, always on time to class and with his assignments and tries to turn in quality work for his assignments. He places a premium on his total educational experience. Jeffrie plans on going to college with or without sports.  You just have to have an education, he explained.<br>Jeffrie believes he has to workout like everyone else. Just being around his teammates was all Jeffrie needed.  I worked on my legs at first. When I tried to Bench it hurt but eventually my arm toughened up and now the hook I use doesn't bother me at all. As far as the Power Clean, I just had to figure out a way."<br>Drugs, alcohol and tobacco have never been a part of Jeffrie's life.  No one has ever asked me to take drugs, said Jeffrie thankfully.  So I've never touched them. I don't chew and I have never tried a cigarette.<br> I wouldn't care to get drunk. The punishment and embarrassment would be to severe. I've never had one bottle of beer, he continued looking me straight in the eye.  You can have fun without drinking. <br>Coach Jefrie Bonner, Choctaw's strength coach and assistant football coach said,  The kids here spend a lot of their spare time training with weights. They don't have time to do negative things. <br>Jeffrie gave these final comments on his success,  Never give up and keep your faith in God. Keep close to your family and people who truly care for you. <br>At the assembly where I spoke to honor Jeffrie, I couldn't help but give Jeffrie a hug and whispered,  On a scale of one to ten Jeffrie, you're an eleven. I know each coach and athlete who reads this will feel the same. Jeffrie's example will help many to play their song in a better way. run on the field for the first time. He was on the Punt Pressure team and they did their job by blocking the Ciadels' first punt. A storybook ending to a life just beginning.&nbsp;</P> <P>"I hope to get a scholarship in the future," said Jeff. "I'll have to fight like anyone else. I will workout really hard to get bigger, faster and stronger." Jeff learned how to do just that at Sabino High School from Coach Jeff Scurran. "Coach Scurran is gth and conditioning program for the mind and body; and as an exhilarating and fun pastime that includes teammates and camaraderie.<br>On the coaching level it s a reminder that every athlete can benefit from a coach s skills and influence.
