New Jersey - expanded high school steroid testing sought.

"More than three years ago, New Jersey's lawmakers and members of the state's governing body for high school athletics flexed their muscles by agreeing to allocate $100,000 per year toward testing high school athletes for performance-enhancing drugs.

In those three years, 1,500 of the state's estimated 258,000 athletes were tested at a cost of $200 each test.

The results? Two high school athletes tested positive and were given a one-year suspension from athletic participation.

"Let's face it, there are good athletes on bad teams and some may try to get bigger, quicker and stronger so that the colleges take a closer look at them."

"Bigger, quicker, stronger" great name for a pro steroid film :-)
