Athletic Training Department Had Busy Summer

Nancy Bleam and Kerri Lafond ‘98, athletic trainers in the Athletic Training curriculum program, co-hosted a KSC alumni party while attending the annual convention of the National Athletic Trainers Association in San Antonio, Texas, in June. This party was held in combination with the athletic training program at Plymouth State University. Approximately 30 alumni from both schools gathered and were provided snacks and an opportunity to mingle and chat. The KSC Alumni department provided gifts for the KSC alumni, and Wanda Swiger notes that they continue to raise funds for the Sherry Bovinet Athletic Training Scholarship.

Scot Ward reports that he was invited to serve as an athletic trainer for the U.S. Soccer Under 15 Boys National Team in June. The domestic training camp was held in Somerset, N.J., and was the last camp for the U15 Boys National Team annual cycle. Scot adds that Tony Lepore ‘90 (a four-year player for Coach Butcher) was an assistant coach for that team.
