Manhattan College Sports Medicine Department
John "Doc" Johnson Athletic Training Center
Sports medicine is an integral part of every collegiate athletics program. Manhattan College employs six certified athletic trainers who work tirelessly to assist student-athletes. While Manhattan's athletic trainers are essential in the treatment of injuries, even greater value comes from their ability to prevent injuries and ensure that Jasper student-athletes are competing in a safe and healthy environment. In addition to preventing and treating injuries, athletic trainers provide injury rehabilitation, nutritional supervision, strength & conditioning, drug & alcohol education, and general personal health advisement.
Manhattan's sports medicine staff is aided by a wide range of equipment for the prevention of injuries and the rehabilitation and conditioning of student-athletes.
The sports medicine staff is supported by a network of highly qualified medical professionals practicing in the metropolitan area.
John "Doc" Johnson Athletic Training Center
The John "Doc" Johnson Athletic Training Center was dedicated after the 2002-03 academic year to one of the most recognizable personalities in the history of the College, upon his retirement after over 56 years of dedicated service to Manhattan College.
A long-time trainer of the New York Giants of the National Football League in addition to his duties in Riverdale, Johnson was conferred with the Diploma of Benefactor by the Brothers of the Christian Schools in 1983 and was elected to the Manhattan College Hall of Fame in 1982. In 1990, "Doc" was given the Distinguished Service Award by the Manhattan College physical education department. In 1997, he was given a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference, and in 1998, the American College of Sports Medicine gave him a similar award. The National Invitational Tournament/Metropolitan Basketball Writers Association honored him in 2000 with its Distinguished Service Award.
