Wright Brings Experience To UNC
GREELEY, Colo. – The University of Northern Colorado Athletics Department welcomes the addition of Elly Wright as an Assistant Athletic Trainer. Wright brings a wealth of experience in collegiate athletic training and a strong background in sports medicine to the UNC athletic training staff.
