2013 Jun 18

Amanda Lusky ’15 of Pittsburgh, PA, is one of nine Marietta College students who recently studied abroad for two weeks in Australia. The trip was part of an educational program set up by the College's Athletic Training program.

Lusky is a graduate of Shaler Area Senior High School.

The trip also provided an opportunity to meet one of Australia's most highly respected athletic trainers, Dr. Jenny McConnell. The group attended several lectures with McConnell and her colleagues, observed in a trainer's room before a Bears rugby match and learned new tape-strapping techniques.
