Coach Claypool brings a dynamic offensive approach to the game, paired with a strong background in sport psychology that emphasizes confidence, resilience, and mental performance.

By measuring key performance metrics, our student-athletes gain immediate feedback that helps accelerate skill development, improve game performance, and track progress throughout their collegiate careers.
     
  • GoRout Communication System (competitive Innovation): These player-worn watches allow coaches to instantly and securely transmit offensive and defensive signals directly to players on the field through wearable technology. This innovative tool improves game efficiency, eliminates sign-stealing concerns, and helps our student-athletes focus on execution and decision-making during competition.
