Regis Athletics Adds Sharon Millett, Ashley Wilson to Sports Medicine Staff
WESTON, Mass. - The Regis College athletics department is pleased to announce that Sharon Millett and Ashley Wilson have joined the sports medicine staff as assistant athletic trainers, with both professionals beginning their tenure at the start of August.
"It isn't often that you get to add two experienced professionals like Sharon and Ashley to a sports medicine staff in one year," Ron LeClair, assistant athletic director and head athletic trainer, said. "Their previous experiences will provide me and our department a new perspective and an opportunity to continue to grow together. I think our student-athletes will enjoy meeting and working with them both, and I look forward to continuing to build our rapport and getting an opportunity to learn from them in an environment that cares about our student-athletes' physical, mental, social, and spiritual health and well-being. We've been working diligently and are all excited to welcome our student-athletes back to campus and begin what we hope will be a great year!"
