Numerous improvements were made in the facility to ensure that it is one of the most advanced athletic facilities in the nation. Enhancements to the Richardson Building include new paint and carpet in the entire facility. The coaching and administration suites have been reconfigured to provide better reception areas. Football and men’s basketball offices are outfitted with a new video system, including computers, editing software and large-screen monitors. This new system is similar to those being used by the NFL and NBA. Inside the Harley Room, a new audio/video system was installed to handle the variety of events held in the room. New displays for academic honors, Southern Confer- ence honors and the Hall of Fame are a part of the project. Additional murals and photos compliment the building and give it a fresh look. In addition, the fitness facilities have been upgraded as well. Nearly $100,000 worth of new equipment was added to supplement the current selection of treadmills and elliptical machines. The cardio area features six flat panel televisions for viewing while working out. The fitness area is used by the entire student body at Wofford.

A conference room athletic trainers, and athletes to work together towards developing an athlete’s full and several work areas give the coaching staff much needed space. physical and mental potential. A focal point of our training programs will be to not spend too much time training one specific aspect of development, but to train with balance. We will be hitting all areas, not neglecting another to prevent injury. Our coaches will inspire the athletes to be consistent, disciplined, and to put forth a great effort every day; never allowing their feelings to affect their performance. The Philosophy The Strength and Conditioning Program consists of a year-round training philosophy designed to improve all aspects of physical and mental development of each athlete. The training cycles consist of different phases, all of which follow sound fundamental training principle and periodization ranging from low to high intensity and high to low volume. These are all encompassing sport specific macrocycles, mesocycles, and microcycles, which will allow each athlete the best opportunity for reaching maximum genetic potential. Goal The goal is to improve the strength, speed, agility, balance, and coordination of the athletes. We will further develop proprioception, kinesthetic awareness, eye-hand and eye-foot coordination. We will be focusing on injury prevention, flexibility, and overall power of the athletes trained under the direction of the strength and conditioning department. This will enable each athlete to have the skills and tools necessary to achieve success.
