Now, however, a three-year pilot collaboration with the Richland-based company Athletic Mentors provides each team access to multiple certified coaches, along with nutrition advice, sports psychology services and enhanced technology to improve preparation and game-day experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve gone from a Division III caliber strength and conditioning program to a Division I by most standards,\u201d Zorbo said. \u201cWe\u2019re providing a high level of strength conditioning, coaching, expertise and technology to our teams and athletes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That matters to prospective student-athletes, he said, because most of them are used to having a strength coach by the time they reach high school, and the additional guidance is imperative for long-term success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s a focal point when prospective student-athletes visit,\u201d Zorbo said. \u201cRecruits want us to describe the culture in the weight room and what an offseason program looks like. We&#8217;re able to answer that question very positively now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recruits then can benefit firsthand as they matriculate at K. The strength experts work with coaches to establish a team\u2019s custom-fit plan of action while also connecting with athletes through two apps\u2014one to record workouts and communicate any issues, and the other to share educational content about nutrition, sleep recovery, the negative effects of drug-and-alcohol use and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe strength and conditioning coach and a head coach talk about where a team might be deficient,\u201d Zorbo said. \u201cThey will ask, \u2018How do we need to plan things out,\u2019 \u2018What do we need to do to set the team up for success once we hit the season\u2019 and \u2018How should we approach strength and conditioning during the season?\u2019 because that changes. They&#8217;re very organized and take a year-round approach. That used to be a big challenge for us. It&#8217;s not a hurdle anymore, because there are multiple trained coaches that we have access to who handle all the programming and planning for each team. Our athletes are probably in the weight room more than they ever have been before.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While reflecting on such benefits, Zorbo also declared a big \u201cthank you\u201d to the donors while recognizing that the gifts will help K recruits, coaches and student-athletes for years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI&#8217;m a big believer that the development of our student-athletes is where we really need to be a cut above, and these very generous gifts are a game changer,\u201d Zorbo said. \u201cIf you&#8217;re a stronger and better-conditioned athlete, that enhances your confidence, safety and your ability to do your job on the field. I believe these changes will lead to more success on the field, so this is transformational.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">From the Student-Athletes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">and Coaches<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">\u201cThis past winter, I studied abroad in Costa Rica and I was still able to do all the workouts that all the girls were doing here in the gym because I could just pull up the app on my phone, look at the assigned workout and do it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">\u2014 <strong>Emma Stickley &#8217;24, volleyball student-athlete<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">\u201cI&#8217;m the heaviest I&#8217;ve ever been, I&#8217;m the strongest I&#8217;ve ever been, and I would like to say I&#8217;m the fastest I&#8217;ve ever been.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><strong>\u2014 Jonah Spates \u201925, football student-athlete<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">\u201cFrom an injury-prevention standpoint, we need our student-athletes firing on all cylinders 100% of the time.
