BEST Initiative

"During my 21 years of collegiate coaching, I became keenly aware of the areas where athletes needed more self awareness to get the most out of their collegiate experience. I’ve considered how awesome it would be if student-athletes had a head start on that process…how these skills would positively impact them today, as well as during their transition to collegiate life. In my experience, mature, self-aware, and self-confident student athletes, who were prepared to ask for help when vulnerable, were consistently more successful in both the classroom and pool." Coach Brackin
