The Golden Eagle wommen’s basketball team strives to play at its peak level during each of its games during the season. To
do that, much preparation, hard work and
dedication is needed, to attain the high performance that is associated with Southern
Miss Basketball each year. Physical preparation and conditioning is the foundation to
that success. Each player understands that
offseason work is the stepping stone to the
next season, and without hard work, dedication and many hours of training, becoming a
champion is impossible.
• The Southern Miss strength and conditioning program has two main goals – helping athletes to enhance their individual
performance potential and aiding in the
prevention of injuries through training.
• The strength and conditioning program
builds a workout plan that will enhance
the weakest phase of each individual’s
ability. If each person is only as strong as
their weakest link, the program strives to
make that weak link strong.
• In every offseason or preseason training cycle, the strength and conditioning
program strives to improve all areas of
training (strength, fitness, conditioning,
flexibility, etc.) the equivalent of one letter grade in each area.
• The athletes receive a specialized workout
that concentrates on improving their per-
formance levels geared to sport specific
training acumens.
