Through interviews with the athletic training staff—Chris, Alissa, Trina, and Janeka—Harvey highlights how these professionals support athletes through injuries, rehab, and recovery, all while building meaningful relationships along the way.

But what stands out most is the human side of Athletic Training. Harvey emphasizes the connection between athletes and trainers, showing how trust, consistency, and care shape the environment in the training room.

 “I love getting to know y’all, but also help y’all get back to playing the sport you love,” Alissa said. 

It’s not just about injuries—it’s about helping athletes feel supported, understood, and ready to get back to what they love.
