Ithaca College Athletics

Injury prevention is a collaborative effort between Ithaca College's certified athletic trainers, the strength & conditioning staff and our coaches. 

Three well-equipped athletic training clinics are available on campus, with the main clinic in Hill Center (below) used throughout the day and staffed by certified athletic trainers and undergraduate students in our nationally recognized athletic training education program.


Prevention

Combining strength training within an annual training plan and monitoring physical activities, our coaching staff, strength & conditioning staff and athletic training staff seek to prevent overuse injuries and other injuries that may prevent athletes from practicing and competing.

Evaluation, Treatment and Rehabilitation

Initial evaluation and care of athletic injuries and rehabilitation following injury or surgery is carried out by a staff of six (6) certified athletic trainers under the supervision of the team physician. 
 

Referrals

The athletic training staff makes referrals for physician appointments to our on-campus health center.  In partnership with Cayuga Medical Center, most appointments are scheduled with our team physicians, both of whom are board-certified in sports medicine.
