Summary

The goal is to improve nutrition screening and support for Division III athletes.

The study will use standard, low-risk nutrition screening methods, such as measuring height, weight, grip strength, and body composition, as well as having athletes complete questionnaires. Dietitians trained in sports nutrition will provide nutrition advice based on these screenings.

Data will be collected at three points during the season: before the season starts, mid-season, and after the season ends. This study builds on earlier research conducted at Case Western Reserve University that showed nutrition support can improve athletes' health and performance.
