Anna's responsibilities have included working with Chapman's women's soccer and basketball teams. |
Lorena's position with Chapman's clinical athletic training staff is the culmination of many years of studying and pursuing an appointment as an Assistant Athletic Trainer at the university level.
When she was younger she wanted to be a sports medicine physician, but upon enrolling in college fell in love with the profession of athletic training.
"One of my first days at Santa Rosa JC, I attended an Introduction to Athletic Training course taught by Byron Craighead," explains Lorena. "His enthusiasm was so overwhelming; I was hooked."
Lorena played soccer collegiately for two years at Santa Rosa JC. Her hobbies include virtually all outdoor activities, including cycling, swimming, snowboarding, basketball and soccer. She is currently training for Olympic distance triathlons. Tarnay hails from Mt. Shasta, Calif.
