Record Number Of Wreckers For 6 a.m. Fitness
The off-season fitness program began this morning at 6 a.m. A record turnout of 39 players — including 9 juniors, 18 sophomores and 12 freshmen — braved the pre-dawn cold to begin strengthening their core, increasing their jumping ability and gaining power and confidence.
Assistant coach (and nationally known trainer) Kurt Dasbach has designed an innovative program — and uploaded videos and photos of it to players’ smartphones. Working in pairs, the group got down to business quickly.
The 6-month off-season fitness program began 2 years ago, and has grown in popularity each year since. “Players who stick with it definitely see results,” said head coach Dan Woog.
