It's that time of year again! March is National Athletic Training Month! Thank you to all my fellow athletic trainers out there! If you know an athletic trainer, take a minute to shake their hand (or give them a hug 😁) and let them know you respect and appreciate what they do.
We ended practice this evening on a high and sad note. Dodgeball and running the gauntlet was memorable, but we say our final goodbyes to @Trainer_Steph as she moves on to her next endeavor. She has set the standard for athletic trainers! See the comments for her breakdown.
When times are challenging, the world searches for heroes. This year, searches for both superheroes and everyday heroes soared. Explore the trends behind the heroic moments of 2019 → https://t.co/8MTKZRDYEJ #YearinSearch
Today we pause in rememberance of those men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice while on active duty. Thank you for fighting for the freedoms we possess today!
A special thank you and warm wishes to all of our active duty service members as well.

YES!!! We don't just tape ankles and set out water. We are licensed health care providers who have the skills of several medical professions combined into one. We make sure your athletes are healthy and safe to participate.

@ATCanonymous Compassionate. A willingness to help others. Able to think fast on your feet. Patience. Being an educator & answer lots of questions. Communicate well. Multitask like a boss. Good time management skills. Being able to stay calm in high stress situations. Sharp attention to detail
Athletic Trainers are also trained to respond to emergencies on the field. This means lots of equipment to respond to everything from a cardiac event to a suspected spinal cord injury. Just don’t forget to tell the AT where practice is! #LEGOatc#NATM2019#WeDontPackLight
Thank you to all the athletic trainers out there who work their tails off to help keep our athletes safe and healthy. I have had the great pleasure to learn from and help teach many ATs during my career and I’ll always go to bat for your profession! #NATM2019
Everyone sees the comeback. Not everyone sees what went into making it possible. @JJWatt understands the impact that ATs have on athletes from firsthand experience. #ATsAreHealthcare
Important: Exams will proceed as scheduled with first hour exam tomorrow, March 6. Take a look at the schedule, including a short frozen Seminar in the afternoon!
For the women we admire, and to those who came before us and helped pave our path.
For the younger players who we hope to inspire.
Happy Girls and Women in Sports Day!
