Oberlin College Athletics

Christine Schwartz enters her 15th year with Oberlin after arriving in September of 2011. Schwartz earned a B.S. in Athletic Training from the University of Toledo in 2011 and has expanded her education by earning certifications in the following specialties: Graston Trained Specialist (GTS), Myofasical Decompression, Functional Movement Taping (FMT), Blood Flow Restriction Therapy (BFR) and Dry Needling.  

Additionally, she has taken over and developed a comprehensive and superior club sport – sports medicine program, unique to Oberlin College and Conservatory. She is in charge of the sports medicine student aides and arranges coverage for all practices and games throughout the year. 
 
Schwartz currently has primary responsibilities for the care of men's and women's cross country, men's and women's track and field and women’s tennis, as well as the main provider of care for the club sport teams that opt-in to the sports medicine program.

Outside of her duties with Oberlin College, she is heavily involved in her community. She pours into her community by giving back as a volunteer youth soccer coach and the President of LaGrange Youth Soccer Association. Most recently she has facilitated the donations for four automated external defibrillators (AEDs) and advocated for the installment of the units throughout their community park benefiting all their youth sports organizations. Shedding a light on life saving techniques and equipment has been a priority for her. She resides in LaGrange with her husband Derek, daughter Ellie and son Thomas.
