The athletic training staff and student sports medicine specialists provide on-site medical coverage to our teams. This coverage includes pre- and post- practice and game coverage. Currently we provide two certified athletic trainers and 15 student sports medicine specialists.

The Athletic Training Room, where much of the care is provided, is located in our new state of the art Walker Field House. We also have satellite facilities at Drake Arena, Klas Field and Midway Stadium.
