CMU women’s soccer has implemented 30 custom sports bras with heart rate monitors and GPS to track player’s physiological responses during competition and training.
Peter McGahey, head coach of CMU’s soccer team, has a motto he employs from time-to-time, which refers to camaraderie felt across the university. "Chips helping Chips."
With the help of the Herbert H. and Mary A. Dow College of Health Professions, soccer has introduced 30 heart rate monitors and GPS units, which tuck into a specially made sports bra worn by each player during practices and games.
“The Chips in exercise science are helping the Chips in athletics,” McGahey said.
