If you were to drive by the school at 6:45 in the morning, you would probably be surprised at the number of cars in the parking lot. More and more students are getting out of bed early to go work out at the school. The strength and conditioning group was started by Jason Smith, a football coach, and Jamie Smith, the girls’ basketball coach. The group began their workouts over the summer, and is currently back at it after a short break over football and volleyball season.
“I’m one to believe that the harder you work at something, the harder it makes it to quit. So if these kids dedicate themselves to become better athletes, it will spread through the school to develop a sense of athleticism, teamwork, and school spirit,” commented Jason Smith.
The group does agility workouts as well as lifts weights, but each person’s workout is tailored specifically to the sports he or she is training for. Workouts are every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 6:45 to 7:40. Any and all students are welcome!
