Dutchmen athletes have welcomed a new strength and conditioning coach this semester.
Coach Nick Benhoff has taken over as the Dutchmen’s head strength and conditioning coach.
This is Benhoff’s fourth year as a strength coach, where he originally started his career as a personal trainer. Before he was a coach, he was also an athlete, playing men’s lacrosse at Randolph-Macon College.
While he has not been at LVC for very long, he has enjoyed transitioning to this new beginning.
“As I eased into my first couple of weeks here, everyone was very kind and accepting,” Benhoff said. “My main goal this semester is to build relationships with the athletes.”
Benhoff also spoke on his favorite aspect of being a strength and conditioning coach.
“The athletes themselves make it worth all the hours, where they are fun and very open to feedback,” he said.
Athletes – stop by the Sports Performance Center to say hello to Coach Benhoff.
