Girls' ACL injuries hit the NY Times!

IMPORTANT: Prevent Injury and Enhance Performance!
This link takes you to a research-proven program (PEP) for reducing the likelihood
of ACL injuries. An ACL tear can put a player out for a YEAR. Nearly 100%

20 years and possibly require joint replacement. Take care of your body!
It's your most precious gift.

up your spine and bring tears to your eyes.
