Riggs was voted the team MVP and earned an athletic scholarship to Shepherd College.<br>Two other seniors who became local celebrities for their outstanding play were quarterback Gary Ward and linebacker/wide receiver Josh Funk. Ward, who also became the leading scorer in school history for the basketball team with 1425 points, passed for 1245 yards and rushed for 432 yards. Those stats include 16 passing TD s and six rushing TD s. Funk, who received a scholarship to Ohio State for lacrosse, had 31 catches for 691 yards, 68 tackles and six sacks.<br> One big difference the BFS program made was in raising the level of confidence in our kids, says Hurd.  This season a lot of our games came down to playing well in the fourth quarter. Our kids knew how hard they had worked, they believed in the program, and that made a huge difference. I attribute a lot of our success to the drive and spirit that our kids gained from being in the BFS program. <br>Recalls Bierly of the Falcons transformation.  When I first started coaching 10 years go, I think we had 18 kids on our football team, and we couldn t even put together a full scrimmage of 11 on 11  we had to run half lines to do it. I also remember times when our games drew only about 30 people to the stands. At our last game we had 2,500 people in the stands. <br>Adds Hurd,  During the past several years our football players had gotten used to disappointment, but now they walk in the community with chests out and heads high  and they are always wearing their jerseys or their BFS shirts. Everyone in the community is proud of what we ve done this year by going 10-0. We are excited about seeing our one-year gains and seeing what it s going to be like when our freshmen become seniors. Our program is going to continue to grow by becoming bigger and faster and stronger as we take it to the next level.
