With their storybook season, they had not only accomplished their goals, but had also become the greatest football team in Fitchburg High School history, a storied tradition of over one hundred years. half a mile from Chesapeake Bay and four miles from the best surf in the East Coast. Then there s the Internet, the 30-minute pizza delivery, microwave ovens  all that stuff. Like Vince Lombardi said, a lot of people who are worth their salt like discipline, they like structure, and that s what we give them with BFS. <br>On March 3rd, Allosso introduced BFS to the team, following the program exactly as Dr. Shepard prescribed it. Les McGuire and Mike Nelson were the coaches primarily responsible for supervising the workouts. It would be an understatement to say that Allosso was pleased with the results.<br> BFS had an immediate impact on our program. My previous experience as a vice president of a systems automation and technology company had provided me with numerous opportunities to attend many outstanding seminars and launch hundreds of great new products and programs. As wonderful and successful as some of them were, nothing compares to the success of the BFS program. <br>As for his on-field football strategy, Allosso decided to abandon his multiple-pro I offense in favor of the double wing offense. He considers the double wing a  smash mouth offense that would complement the gains the team was experiencing with the BFS program.  It s also an offense built on teamwork and it s built on practice  it s built on the Be An 11 philosophy. The new offense, coupled with BFS conditioning and a Be An 11 attitude, brought new life to Falcons football.<br>The next year the Falcons finished with a 7-3 record, winning their last five games, and just missed the playoffs by one-tenth of a point (on a power rating system) in a competitive conference. This tied the school record (over a 41-year period) of wins during the regular season and consecutive wins. The Falcons led the team district in rushing, and four players earned First Team All District, the most in school history.<br>Especially noteworthy was Andre Boone, a sophomore who rushed for 1,398 yards, a 6.2 average, and scored 15 touchdowns. Allosso was voted unanimously as Coach of the Year by fellow Beach District coaches. Not to be outdone by his father s great season, Allosso s son Dakota Allosso, a sophomore with a 3.9 GPA, earned Honorable Mention All District as a quarterback and linebacker.<br>Allosso says BFS enabled his team to do things they could not have done otherwise.  In one game we had a 19-play scoring drive without a hiccup  without an offsides and without a mistake. That has to be some type of national record for a high school, and it s all due to BFS. He s serious.<br> We re BFS purists. Other football programs that use BFS might have athletes or coaches or school tradition leading the charge, but we had BFS in that role, says Allosso.  Think about it  you play only 10 games in a football season, a few more if you re in the playoffs, which means the off-season is much longer than the season. BFS is our off-season program, and the whole concept that Dr. Shepard put together leads our charge. That s our catalyst. <br><br>Planning for the Future<br><br>When asked if he thinks the team s recent success could result in a complacent attitude next season, Allosso replied,  We won five games by less than a touchdown  we came from behind to win. We know we cannot be complacent. There are always exceptions and kids are kids, but we feel good about next year because we have the Le yc $_ĆcVwte2NV{;U]ݔmwOQr G.A147zơwwIfd㯤P9'կ9O^|oȃ9\d"ss`O dKa{(|fPzL7?3ZeĚ$gkiL^W Ǐiwv/#ij*IDA!; O*7(H q8',ҜqWW^%ԧ 7ֺ75&VEj+*7K(2[J7FHELsnUnɗ0CT{`OS1h1j~w$C֣PdH!(H3[2I沺e0ubhxB~1^ߵ> |;{gO$$%ˬkb7vOܳCiq3I%+,8SWbi_̓O#Cۡ76 Ddsmb͖P>BQ0אW kmODGq嫓hbHPSd~j{4Y4fFmWhJrLH>y,3\y= W׸1ψ Z+ A/I~_ ߑvyw޻`.{[T&fUmI15˻a6)]#pgKlyO O~?s'ҽg67rO6ٲ%w{Г~sicb-o9;Pic&ϾXQ&c1?}O˳?4y!8 f9)g9i4N9++~d-R[F-Z83-]z\qZ4.[iBK3W% ŪL<hCKǩnqXΥeRP|YBcw:MQ>k$3Ek$uwE"I-v'տ݊_i'ѭTo*r<k{K&@7& 7 u;ic e>(1FBK!$,RbP h7_˓[kYowlE#YFMǜx緸Vue[N$K~ ÇA9^G𰣠kBf:|uhb
