Players from around the Omaha area and as far as Litchfield (near Kearney) attended the 2010 High School Football Combine hosted by Athletes’ Training Center Sports Performance & Physical Therapy. The event was held Saturday, April 10th and allowed athletes to experience what they would go through at an NFL combine. They tested in the following areas: 10 yard sprint, vertical jump, 3-cone drill, bench press repetition test, broad jump, and Pro agility.
Most high school football players do some type of pre-season testing when they begin the football season, but few do a full battery of tests similar to what would be expected at a combine. “This combine gives them the chance to see how they rank in terms of the same performance tests the pros go through every April,” David Fiech, MS, CSCS, head performance coach at Athletes’ Training Center explains.
Scoring best in each category were: vertical jump, Jeremy Meyer, Elkhorn, 31.5”; 10 yard, Assan Tucker, Bellevue West, 1.86 seconds; 3-cone drill, Zak Ziepke, Millard North, 7.46 seconds; broad jump, Jared Sapp, Lincoln High, 9’ 8.5”; pro-agility, Ziepke, 4.52 seconds; and bench press, Arik Todd, Waverly, 16 x 185 lbs.
