Student Health and Wellness

The mission of the Department of Sports Medicine is to provide the student-athlete with access to the highest quality patient care and the most current health and injury prevention information. Further, the Sports Medicine Staff serves as advocates for the student-athlete when individual health issues arise. Since the student-athlete's physical well-being is essential to their success as a student, and as a student-athlete, the Department of Sports Medicine strives to ensure student-athletes reach and maintain their optimum health.
