This past March, the Marquette University men's basketball team was one of the darlings of the NCAA Tournament, as the 11th-seeded Golden Eagles scored a pair of upsets en route to an appearance in the Sweet 16. While the players were getting the job done on the court, behind the scenes, Athletic Trainer Ernest Eugene, MS, ATC, NASM-PES, CES, was working just as hard to keep them healthy. In this interview, Eugene discusses his career path, the differences between a pro and college setting, and working with coaches.
