Gaining experience on the NFL stage

Senior Marin Schaffner and Greg Raimondo, who graduated in May, each spent their summer working with National Football League teams as athletic trainers. Though over 2,000 miles apart, both gained valuable experience in their summer internships. “We got to do a lot more as interns that I thought we would,” she said. “There are a lot of tools and techniques I was able to work with that I’d never had the chance to before. I learned a lot. It was a great experience.” Greg gained confidence that will help him as he begins his career. “Working with high-profile athletes and getting comfortable around them really helped me. The internship and the experience I’m getting with the Browns has made me much more confident in my skills," he said.
