Returning Athletes
Concussion Information
Concussions and other traumatic brain injuries can be serious and a potentially life threatening injury in sports. Research indicates that these injuries can also have serious consequences later in life if not managed properly. In an effort to combat these issues, Clarkson University has developed a concussion management protocol that will be used to help care for student-athletes that are suspected of sustaining a concussion. The NCAA requires annual concussion testing for all student athletes .
