#33 Adam Virgile - Sports Science

January 05, 2021 • Chop Talk • Season 2

Guest: Adam Virgile is a sports scientist who is working on his PHD at The University of Vermont. He also worked with the New York Rangers for 4 years before making the move to UVM. This conversation was not only very informative but it opened my eyes to some things coaches don't think about.
