<aside> 🧠 All student-athletes must undergo baseline concussion testing prior to participation in athletics. The purpose of baseline concussion testing is to give the athletic trainers a baseline of where the athlete currently stands when healthy. If an accident occurs and there is a possibility of a concussion, we can run this test again and compare the baseline with the post injury test. This testing is non-invasive and simply requires the use of a cell phone. It takes approximately 10 minutes to complete. Directions on how to complete the baseline testing are below.
