As a teacher and the school’s head athletic trainer for 15 years, she has extensive experience with all aspects of instruction of student athletic trainers, a GLATA statement said.
Cartwright is the author of three books and was the first woman and first high school athletic trainer to serve as the president of the GLATA. She holds a bachelor’s degree in physical education from Grand Valley State College and a master’s degree in education from the University of Michigan.
She won the Dedicated Service Award from GLATA in 2002, the Most Distinguished Athletic Trainer Award from the Michigan Athletic Trainers’ Society in 1998, and the Distinguished Service Award from the National Athletic Trainers’ Association in 1997.
