Technology is constantly improving to help athletes become, as the popular 70s television show Six Million Dollar Man immortalized, "better, stronger, faster." Temple University Athletics, like most NCAA Division I schools, seeks out new cutting-edge technology and implements it to help its student-athletes succeed.
But what about the mind? What makes each student-athlete succeed, and how do you find out what is the best way to motivate these young men and women? What makes a championship level athlete?
