Beat: Sports & Health

For the semester I think I would like to focus on health. I think that health is a really current topic that is always being improved upon and changes constantly. To be specific to WSU I want to focus on health in sports. Within this category I would look for stories that relate to sports injury, health of athletes, their treatment during injury and any other related topics that arise during my searches. I think the world of sports is fast paced and I would love to work in a field where there is a lot of action going on.

I think that health in sports is also extremely important since many people look up to their favorite athletes and it would be encouraging to see how they maintain themselves. I’ve always had an interest in medicine so I think that by combining sports and medicine I can find a great amount of information. I looks forward to diving into this topic a little deeper and understaning any differences athletes have compared to other individuals in the medical department.

Currently I’ve thought of talking with students in the Sports Management field who works with different athletes in different sports:
Melissa Mccanna-509.961.4085
Kelly Caroll-425.445.4714

A student athlete who is on the Woman’s Crew Team (and hopefully her coach if available):
Samantha Hoeper-425.238.9601

And the student Health and Wellness Center: 509-335-3575
