The Story of The North Central College Cross Country and Track & Field TeamsRun for Fun and Personal Bests is not about trophies and championships. It's ultimately about much more important goals and lasting rewards for the student athletes who built and benefit from our North Central program.The basic responsibility of a coach should never veer from the goal of stressing core internal values that guide athletes to personal growth.I train cross country and track athletes, but this recipe, this process, should work for any athlete in any sport. I also believe it can guide other young people pursuing a personal goal in school, at work, or in their personal lives, who are asking themselves, "I know where I want to go, but how do I get there?"At times, we are all so busy working toward material outcomes for our youths that we don't have time for the most important needs they require to succeed.In a world that's becoming more materialistic, more professional, more outcome-oriented, we believe, to the contrary, that the ultimate competition is you against you.

Pitching Against Myself: It Is More Than a Game is two books in one. The first book is about Riley's illustrious baseball career and how he overcame significant odds, extraordinary challenges, and dreadful circumstances to go from being a benchwarmer to an All-American, and from being told that he should quit to pitching in the All-Star Game in the prestigious Northwoods League. It is also about his childhood and the house he grew up in that was plagued by addiction and oppression, and how he conquered extreme internal and external hardships to end generational curses and break free from the shackles that had been holding him and his family in bondage for too long. The second book is the book Riley wishes existed when he was playing baseball; a book that teaches the physical and mental principles needed to succeed in every sport; a book that demonstrates how those principles also apply to every aspect of life; a book that challenges limiting beliefs and shows you how to change what you believe; a book that helps you realize your true identity and unwavering worth.
SECOND EDITION WITH 20 RARE PHOTOS ADDED* Rare pictures of Grambling's undefeated, untied, and unscored 1942 "Unteam" along with the 1955 undefeated team are highlighted in this second issue of "MY FRIEND EDDIE ROBINSON" Buck Godfrey gives a new take on a man whose vision, tenacity and honesty opened the door for many. The reader will meet Paul "Tank" Younger and James "Shank" Harris, pioneers in professional football. More importantly, he will meet the symbol of the "gorilla," the essence of the classic, the building of the brand and pure simplicity of a man whose favorite dessert is peach ice cream and vanilla wafers. Enjoy this informative look at an icon by a true friend and mentee.-Clemente Gordon All SWAC '88, '89, Offensive Player of the Year '89, Jake Gaither Award '90, Freedom Bowl MVP '90 This book captures a panorama of novelties unknown by most people. It is touching, informative and honest. Buck Godfrey tries to benchmark Grambling and Eddie Robinson. He succeeds.-Robert Parham, NFL Running Back- San Diego Chargers and New Orleans Saints I am so glad that Coach Godfrey wrote this book on my great-grandfather, Eddie G. Robinson. Many know him as this huge iconic figure and now as an adult, I see why. He took pride in the development of young men both on and off the field. Buck Godfrey was the same and the insight that Coach Godfrey gives of my great-grandfather in this book is second to none. Eddie G. Robinson was a man of simplicity who transcended the sport of football. He was a trailblazer who left a legacy that in all likelihood will never be repeated.-Quentin Burrell, Notre Dame alumni, and Grambling Receiver Coach

This book is a collection of intimate and sometimes shocking conversations about success. Each story will inspire, enlighten, and entertain you. In Success, not only did I seek to discover what motivates high achievers, but I also dug for the philosophies that lead to success. During these interviews, I asked uncomfortable questions that led to answers that often surprised even the athletes being interviewed, because it is the subconscious mind that drives most ambitious people to achieve.Each athlete came from a diverse background, but there were common themes that every reader can embrace and model in their own lives. A key takeaway was how each fighter defined success-often their answers contradicted societal norms.Jiu-Jitsu has often been used as a metaphor for life, but in these stories, you can replace Jiu-Jitsu with any ambitious pursuit-the lessons are universal.Get ready for an intense journey.
