Had an incredible conversation with Kenna Smoak-Minnici, Performance Director at Army West Point. We dove into how she experiments with tools before they ever reach her athletes, and how every decision is filtered through the lens of what the sport—and the soldier—demands.

Kenna breaks down the unique differences between a traditional collegiate program and West Point’s high-performance environment. Intentional. Tactical. Built different.
