Colby Athletics
Strength and Conditioning Coordinator
|
Dawn Strout, Strength and Conditioning Coordinator Dawn Strout is in her second year as the strength and conditioning coordinator at Colby in the 2011-12 academic year. (NOTE: See Dawn Strout's schedule at the bottom of this page) Strout is the first-ever strength and conditioning coordinator at Colby. "It was a great day for Colby athletics when Dawn Strout accepted our position," Colby Athletics Director Marcella Zalot said. "She is extremely qualified and comes to us with a vast amount of knowledge and experience. This has been a missing piece in our programming for a long time and I know that Dawn's impact on our programs and on our student-athletes will be tremendous." Strout brings a wealth of experience to Colby. She has been the Director of the Human Performance Lab and clinical coordinator at University of New England, a strength and conditioning coach for the U.S. Women's Under-18 hockey team, the Maine State Coordinator for the President's Fitness Challenge, and is owner of B-F.A.S.T., LLC. Strout does sport conditioning and strength training for junior high, high school, colleges, and adults. She also does wellness training with corporations. Strout will work with Colby's student-athletes, but also the general student body as well. "The workouts are open to anyone," Strout said. "I want to be able to give the most education to students and coaches as possible to leave them with a tool box of different programs that can be done in-season or out-of-season." Strout, who has a bachelor's degree in physical education and a master's degree in exercise science from the University of Maine, worked as head coach of strength training and conditioning and director of the fitness facility at Bowdoin College from 1997 to 2005. She also was head softball coach, assistant field hockey coach, and the physical education director during her time with the Polar Bears. It was at Bowdoin where Strout's connection with the U.S. Women's Hockey program began. Former Bowdoin head coach Michele Amidon was the director of women's hockey for the U.S. national program. "I was really in the right place at the right time with under-18 hockey." Strout said. "Michele became the first director and that helped me start working with the program. Now Michele is gone and (Colby graduate) Reagan Carey is in charge. I periodically meet with the athletes at different locations. There is a training camp at Bowdoin next month and I'll be there. I also do a lot of e-mails and phone calls when the team is on the road." Strout now gets an opportunity to work with Colby's 32 varsity sports and with the rest of the College. "The many different sports really allow you to be creative," Strout said. "Every sport is so different and yet there are certain aspects to all of them that are the same.
