In this episode of the Champions Series, presented by Signature Championship Rings, we sit down with Wayne Alofipo, HC, Crimson Cliffs HS (UT), Ty Harper, HC, Chautauqua Lake HS (NY), and Dwight Lundeen, HC, Becker HS (MN). The group explores what truly builds a team destined for greatness. The conversation covers everything from personal coaching journeys and philosophies to the vital role of offseason training — especially weightlifting — in athlete development.

The coaches highlight the importance of teaching fundamentals, developing collaboration among staff, and adapting to new technologies in sports. More than strategy, they share powerful reflections on coaching their staff as well as their players, mentorship, team culture, and the life lessons that football imparts to young athletes. This episode offers valuable insight into what it takes to lead, inspire, and sustain excellence both on and off the field.
