"Candy is an intense trainer- there’s no doubt about that. She’s honest, but that is one of her best qualities. She cares about you and your health more than you know. She goes the extra mile every day to ensure all IWU athletes are cared for. I remember many personal conversations where she would take time out of her day to make sure I was doing okay mentally, and she was there in times when I needed it most. Candy is phenomenal, and anyone who works with her is lucky. If you think she is mean or nagging you to get training done, you are missing the bigger picture. She cares about her players so much that she’s honest and upfront with them to help them recover as quickly as they can. I am fortunate to have worked with Candy. "

"Candy often made players feel bad about themselves and like they were not good enough. She made recovery and rehab dreadful and like it was a chore. "
