The Washburn Athletic Training Center is one of the most advanced in the Midwest. The four-year old facility is nearly triple the size of the one it replaced.

Dr. Iris Gonzalez, the campus physician, is the team’s resident doctor. Dr. Matthew Bohm of the Cotton O’Neil Clinic comes to campus every Wednesday to evaluate student-athletes and to educate athletic trainers.

Washburn Weight Room
After more than $150,000 in upgrades to the weight room, the Washburn athletic program now boasts one of the best facilities in the Midwest. Currently there is a fund-raising effort to completely revamp the weight room into its own facility.
Ichabod Power is based on using free weights and the feet in contact with the floor, using triple extension of the ankle, knee and hip. This type of training is used to develop athletes stability in the joints and trunk, and power in the lower body when in contact with the playing surface. Each multi-rack and Olympic platform allows the Washburn athlete to perform Olympic Lifts on a solid oak surface.
The multi-racks are self-contained with all the weight on the rack. This allows the Washburn athlete to perform 90 to 95 percent of their work in one area. The racks and platforms have special features that allow the student-athlete to perform secondary exercises with special attachments. The installation of new equipment transformed Washburn’s weight room into a top-notch facility. |
