Few programs play a role as
essential to the continued success of the Youngstown State athletic programs as
the sports medicine staff. Under the direction and experience of veteran head
athletic trainer Dan Wathen, the YSU Athletic Training staff provides preventive
care that helps student-athletes avoid injuries, and post-injury treatment that
enables athletes to fully recover.
Willard Webster Sports Medicine Center
The football program and all other athletic teams are served
by the Willard Webster Sports Medicine Center on the first level of Stambaugh
Stadium. The Center is well equipped to handle any needs with the latest
available and innovative equipment for the care and prevention of injuries.
Assisting Wathen in the training room are Associate Athletic Trainer John
Doneyko and Assistant Athletic Trainer Jenna Lesko. Also, numerous student
assistants are on hand throughout the year and work closely with all YSU
athletic teams attending games (home and away) and practices.
The Penguin staff is assisted by a host of healthcare
professionals in the Youngstown area, providing state-of-the-art care in
prevention and treatment of athletic injuries. Dr. Ray Duffett and Dr. Mike
Miladore are the team’s physicians and are on hand on gamedays.
With the support of Youngstown State’s sports medicine staff,
the communities physicians and their facilities, Penguin student-athletes can
compete with the confidence that they are afforded the best care possible.
Beeghly Center Athletic Training &
Rehabilitation Room
From August through March, the Beeghly Center Athletic
Training & Rehabilitation Room caters to the needs of YSU volleyball, women's
swimming & diving, and men's and women's basketball student-athletes.
Located on the lower level of the building, the Training Room
is used throughout that time under the direction of Associate Trainer John
Doneyko. The Center is well equipped to handle any needs with the latest
available and innovative equipment for the care and prevention of injuries.
Rehabilitation equipment along with training tables and the latest in sports
medicine innovations are available to the student athlete.
