About

If you were a Hanover student athlete in the last 35 years or so, you would have had interaction with our athletic training staff.  

The Athletic Training staff provides injury prevention, care, and rehabilitation services and athletic education to each and every student-athlete. The mission of the sports medicine program is to provide the highest quality healthcare available to our student-athletes in a professional and caring manner in order to prevent athletic injury. It is our mission to recognize an injury or illness that may occur and refer the student-athlete to the appropriate medical care, returning them to competition as quickly and safely as possible.
