Angry that their talented, winning team (17-5) had squandered its opportunities, the sophomores and juniors made a strong commitment to each other that the story would be different next year.<br>When asked how their perfect season happened, Coach Gjormand reflected that  this all goes back to the off-season. He continually reminded his players that the off-season was for work, the ik and work.  Never give up, he advisThe Warhawks bought into the BFS program with a vengeance in the summer of 2001. Johnny Ayers, a starter on both the football team and the baseball team, explained,  We re working hard for a reason. It s not just to look good on the beach it s sports-specific training that you know you re doing for Friday night football or Tuesday night baseball. You know it will be there when you need it. Andrew Baird, who would play key roles as a halfback and an outfielder in his junior year, later described the impact BFS had on the players. He saw the weekly successes the athletes experienced in breaking personal records in the BFS program as a confidence builder for each participant. He also believes that the camaraderie generated by working hard together built team cohesiveness that carried over to the season.<br>Coach Gjormand believes that the success he and Coach Leib pursued started with the championship football season in 2001. Despite a bitter, last-minute opening game loss to rival Oakton High School, the Warhawks knew they had turned the corner when they won a key district game in overtime, 29-22 over W.T. Woodson High. Runs by Andrew Baird, Ryan Ginley and Joe Lewin supplemented B.T. Good s passing to move the Warhawks to a 2-1 record, duplicating or exceeding their win totals of each of the three preceding seasons. Ginley indicated in a Sun Gazette story on the game that  an off season workout program calld BFS had been invaluable and as a result theWarhawks were  bigger, faster and stronger. <br>At last the Warhawks had won a close game against a quality opponent after three years of frustrating losses. The year-round BFS training program was making a difference. The Warhawks continued their newfound winning ways, capturing the district championship for the first time in five years.<br>The Warhawks then advanced to the regional playoffs against Edison High School. Madison prevailed 20-14 in overtime, led by Tyier Lee s 156 yards rushing and two touchdowns. Coach Leib feels that Lee s ability to push through injuries and exhaustion he carried the ball 27 times on offense and played outside linebacker on defense was due in no small part to his BFS conditioning.<br>The Warhawks lost the regional championship to Mt. Vernon High School the following week, but their 8-3 record and district championship made all their hard work well worth the effort. Reflecting on the startling reversal from their preceding season s 2-8 record, Coach Leib gave the primary credit to the hard work of his players. He felt that their commitment to the BFS program, particularly the parallel squatting and box jumps, greatly increased their explosive power and speed. He is convinced that as a team they were stronger at the end of the year than at the beginning.<br>Coach Leib, who at one time in his first year of coaching at Madison had 14 players on the injured list, believes that BFS limited the number and severity of injuries his team suffered, He still marvels at the beating that his undersized, gutsy quarterback and leader, B.T. Good, endured, while continuing to play an
