One of the great things about St. Stephen’s & St. Agnes is its' comprehensive athletic training facilities. The Upper School has two full-time trainers and a fully equipped training room. The trainers not only routinely work with athletes to improve performance, but they also help with sports injuries. After I tore my ACL playing basketball, the head trainer connected me with one of the top orthopedic surgeons in the area. When I returned to school after my surgery, I was able to go to the training room for ice therapy to help ease my pain after hobbling around on crutches. Of course I go to physical therapy outside of school, but it’s nice to know that an experienced and knowledgeable trainer is right down the hall.
The trainers at SSSAS really care about each student athlete – whether a star senior headed to a Division I sports team or a freshman playing on his/her first high school team. The trainers are such a great resource at SSSAS. With the support of the SSSAS trainers, I just might be back for part of the spring golf season!
