We will be more than accommodating to your teams in providing pre-game taping. Visiting teams must supply their own tape and wraps. The use of moist heat by the athletes is available but must be pre-arranged by the visiting University/College.
Athletic Training Services
In addition to the Sports Medicine services provided to the Intercollegiate Athletics Department, the Athletic Training Services Department works in conjunction with the Athletic Training Education Program (ATEP) to provide outstanding clinical education experiences for the ATEP students.
