Athletic Training Graduate Students Learn Phlebotomy

Sonya Fuemmeler ATC, Greg Shedd ATC, and Erica Simone ATC, 2nd year graduate assistant athletic trainers, learn blood drawing techniques for their upcoming research project. The students will be drawing to test for blood markers of muscle damage for their master's research project starting this January.

Dr. Stephen Chen, from the Department of Exercise Science, lead the instructional session, assisted by athletic training doctoral student Dawn Minton and assistant professor Dr. Toni Torres-McGehee.

We have great research coming from our athletic training graduate students at South Carolina!!

SCATSA Breast Cancer Awareness Project

As many of you know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Many of our students and faculty/staff here at South Carolina are personally affected by not only breast cancer, but cancer in general. In an effort to support and raise money for awarness, the student association is raising money by taping in PINK!

Students at our local high schools will be taping all month in pink tape and wrap.

These are some pictures of last Friday's game at Airport High School.
