A Cincinnati-area high school student collapsed yesterday from cardiac arrest during a strength and conditioning class during the school day. CPR was administered. School athletic trainer wasn’t on site yet. Student is supposedly not an athlete. He was 17.

A save in Gatlinburg, Tenn. On Monday, a girl's basketball player collapsed during a game due to a cardiac incident. Athletic trainers and a nurse used CPR and an AED. She's now in stable condition. #athletesATrisk wate.com/news/sevier-co…

Speaking to a physio student today who tells me his clinical educator is distant, apathetic, and makes him feel like a burden! Clinical educators… having students is a f**king privilege… if you cant be arsed to enthuse, enable, or educate the next generation… get out! 🤨😡

…let’s stop walking PAST each other & look AT each other, talk TO each other. “How are you doing?” And be ready for a truthful reply. Your humanity might save someone. Sadly, it’s too late for Tori and my heart is broken. We ALL failed her & others leaving like this.

An AED in every gym on earth that’s all I ask

“I want to play in the NFL or MLB”. -Kids that skip breakfast and eat 2 meals per day while snacking on candy and drinking energy drinks sleeping < 6 hours per night 📱. Talent will only get you so far in sports and in life. 🤷‍♀️ If you’re a young athlete that views proper

This generation doesn’t know how to build healthy relationships.. We end up saying stuff like “I don’t owe anyone anything.” You do owe people something. You owe those you offended an apology. You owe those who gave you support, gratitude (1/2)

+ you owe those you disrespect, respect. Accountability is a personal act of integrity and moral principles. We will forever live in a broken society, until we learn to account for our actions that impact other peoples lives negatively (2/2)

📢 TO MY ATHLETES PAST & PRESENT: I am ALWAYS here for you to reach out to if you feel overwhelmed & against the wall. Praying for this young man's friends, family, teammates, coaches, ATs, all who knew & loved him and the entire Broncos family. 🧡💚 #MentalHealthMatters

Re: Coach Saban: Good for him! He owes us nothing & earned every minute (more importantly, Miss Terry has earned every minute). My next thought: I'm thankful for his impact on the athletic training profession. My list of things he "normalized" re: athletic trainers (a🧵):

Be A Good Person.

No one can make you get better. Don’t rely on a coach, trainer, teammate or parent for improvement. If you do, you’ll never succeed. Look at your work ethic, habits & routines. To see measurable gains, apply what you know & implement it daily. You must be accountable to yourself!

If your coach holds you accountable, you are VERY fortunate. A lot of coaches accept their players doing whatever they want, whenever they want with no consequences. Discipline/responsibility/accountability are life prep! If your coach cares that much, you’re lucky so respect it!

My dudes! Love you all and make us proud!!! Ja’Vonte (v7⛑️) pullom , Jermaine Blackstock Marquell Sails!!!
