OATA Supplemental Issue
A Letter from your President-Elect
Welcome to Volume 5 Issue 1 of the Journal of Sports Medicine and Allied Health Sciences: The Official Journal of the Ohio Athletic Trainers’ Association. This journal is a point of pride for the OATA and continues to experience growth with over 12,000 downloads from all over the world in the past year. The journal would not be possible without the vision of Editor-In-Chief Dr. Matthew R. Kutz, the hard work of Managing Editor Sara Stiltner, and the large list of Peer-Reviewers, who pour over abstracts and manuscripts to make the journal a high quality publication. And a huge thank you to Bowling Green State University for their continued support! There is some great research being done in Ohio and if you attend the 2019 OATA Annual Meeting and Symposium, I encourage you to check out the Free Communication Poster and Platform Sessions. I hope you enjoy this issue of the Journal of Sports Medicine and Allied Health Sciences and hope to see you at the 2019 OATA Annual Meeting and Symposium. Sincerely, Brian Huck Ohio Athletic Trainers’ Association President-ElectProfessional/Faculty Abstracts
