Welcome to National Athletic Training Month!

National Athletic Training Month is held every March in order to spread awareness about the important work of athletic trainers. In celebration of the month, we will be showcasing one AT each week for the next 30 days — "Our May 2022 graduates — the first of our program," said Johanna Hoch, PhD, ATC and Program Director of the Professional Masters in Athletic Training.

Kaley Evans, MS, ATC, is currently an athletic trainer for the University of Kentucky's baseball team. We asked her a couple of questions to continue this month's stories:

What do you love about your current role?

Developing my knowledge for the sport and getting to know people with different backgrounds and personalities. 

What advice do you have for athletic training students?

Athletic training is a small world, treat everyone with honesty and kindness.  It will truly help expand your networking circle in the future. 

Look for more examples of athletic trainers in the coming weeks.
