Beaver Joins Duke as Sports Performance Coach
7/13/2016 8:22:00 AM | Women's Basketball
DURHAM, N.C.— Duke University is excited to announce the addition of Ashleigh Beaver as the sports performance coach for women's basketball, effective immediately. After spending all of 2013-14 with the Blue Devils as a sports performance coaching assistant, Beaver returns to Durham following a 16-month stint as the assistant strength and conditioning coach at the United States Military Academy.
“Ashleigh is terrific,” commented Duke women's basketball head coach Joanne P. McCallie. “She comes to us from Army with a great deal of focus, discipline, and commitment. Of course we love Coach Will [Stephens], but the opportunity to have our own strength coach, to travel with us, to be with us, and condition us every day and to really work on the rehab and recovery is outstanding. We can't say enough about that. We're absolutely thrilled. She's fantastic, she's tough, she's disciplined and she is making a very nice impact on our team.”
At West Point, Beaver instituted all aspects of training programs associated with men and women's soccer, swimming and diving, rifle and cheer. While also assisting the training staff in numerous other sports, Beaver worked hand-in-hand with the sports medicine office to further identify injury risk and recovery methods among athletes. Additionally, she utilized a GPS tracking system to help establish a more efficient and effective training regimen for her athletes.
Prior to Army, Beaver served as an assistant sports performance coach at Duke in 2013, where she helped in the implementation of training programs for 15 Olympic sports, including men's lacrosse, baseball, volleyball, swimming and diving, women's soccer, and rowing, amongst others. From 2009-10, Beaver worked as a strength and conditioning intern at the University of Dayton. With the Flyers, she was closely involved with the women's basketball team, traveling with them to ensure proper pre and post-game routines were being employed.
“I am very grateful for the opportunity to be a part of the Duke sports performance staff and work with the Duke's women's basketball program,” commented Beaver. “I look forward to working with Coach McCallie and her staff, and contribute to the athletic development of the women's basketball student-athletes. I am excited to be back in Durham, be a part of the Duke sports performance staff and to help further the success of the Duke women's basketball program.”
Beaver attended Armstrong State University, where she received, both, a Bachelor of Science in rehabilitation sciences and a master of science in sports medicine. She also holds a NSCA CSCS certification.
Originally from Warner Robins, Ga., Beaver now resides in Durham, N.C.
