VISITING TEAM INFORMATION

The Mount Union Athletic Training Staff is available to assist your needs. Should one of your athletes need an appointment with a medical doctor while in Alliance, we ask that you allow our staff to make this appointment for you with the exception of an emergency. Please contact the AT for your sport to assist you in this process.
Our team physician and an orthopedic consultant will be in attendance at all home football games. They will be on-call for all other events. A rescue squad will be in attendance at all home football games. Emergency equipment (crutches, splints, AED) will be located on the home bench/sideline.
Our therapeutic facilities are available prior to events. The main athletic training facility for all sports is located in the MAAC adjacent to Mount Union Stadium.
