Nick DiMarco - Assistant Athletics Director for Peak Performance at Elon University - joins us for the 146th episode of MTN. On the show today, we dive into Nick's journey to Elon and all the things that have fallen in place for him to have secured an incredible position, we talk through the X's and O's of how he thinks of football performance programming, and we take a turn down some of the educational content that is coming out of the performance field today. This was a really jam packed episode and we were grateful for Nick taking the time to jump on.
