ATHLETIC TRAINING CLINIC (ATC)


Biola Athletics unveiled it's brand new Athletic Training Clinic in fall 2020. The new ATC is a major expansion from the previous Athletic Training Room, which was active from 2010 through spring 2020. The new ATC nearly tripled the amount of treatment/rehab space from the previous facility, expanding from 880 square feet to 2,300 square feet.

"We will be able to serve more student athletes with increased efficiency and in an enhanced,  professional manner/setting," said John Wiese, director of sport medicine. "Our new facilities are comparable to or exceed other NCAA Division II institutions in the southwest US. They are impressive spaces for coaches to include on their prospective student-athlete tours (or virtual tours)."

The Athletic Training Clinic is attached to Chase Gymnasium in the northeast corner facing the Biola Fitness Center. The facility can be accessed through the breezeway between Chase Gym and the Fitness Center and is also accessible directly from the northeast corner of the court inside of the gymnasium. The central location near Chase Gym, Al Barbour Field, Lansing Aquatic Center and Eagles Diamond  provides easy emergency access when athletes are transported from sport venues located on other areas of campus. 

The new space includes three offices housing Biola's five full-time athletic trainers, a private exam room, a wet room with multiple types of ice a sink and laundry machines, a hydrotherapy room with multiple full-body whirlpools, ample storage, an indoor rehab space and a large floor featuring double the amount of treatment locations as available in the ATR.

SPORT PERFORMANCE CENTER (SPC)


Biola Athletics unveiled it's brand new Sport Performance Center in fall of 2020 as well. The new space is 2,365 square feet and occupies the entire northwest corner of the Chase Gymnasium building where classrooms G07, G09 and G11, a reception area and some offices once were. The new space was fully furnished by SORINEX with cutting edge sport performance equipment to give Biola student-athletes a top notch NCAA Division II facility for their strength & conditioning. In addition to over 2,200 square feet of floor space, the facility also features a dedicated office for Biola's Director of Sport Performance, Frank "the tank" Ramirez.

As part of this massive upgrade, student-athletes can now make use of fully branded materials, featuring Biola logos and colors on eight new squat racks, 14 new benches, new pull/row machines, adjustable dumbell sets, plyo boxes, med balls, strength bands and more. It's a fully custom strength & conditioning facility designed to keep Biola student-athletes in peak condition for competition all year round.
