Maddie is entering her third year as an assistant athletic trainer for Campbellsville University. Dawson is from Sandwich, Illinois and attended Aurora University. She went through a 3+2 Athletic Training program there where she finished my bachelors degree of exercise science in three years and then went on to the Masters in Athletic Training program for 2 years.
Her first clinical rotation was at Aurora University. She worked with the football team during this rotation and worked with the men’s basketball team. Her second rotation was at a very small high school called Newark High School. She only worked with their softball and baseball teams. Over the summer of 2022 she did an internship at a chiropractic and physical therapy clinic. In her second year she did a rotation at Neuqua Valley High School. She worked with fall sports which included football, women’s volleyball, men’s soccer, tennis, swim and dive team, and cross country.
Dawson competed in track and field at Aurora University. Her main events were the 400 meter and the 4x400 meter relay. Her team won the Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference Championship, while she earned bronze for the 400m, and her 4x4 team earned the silver medal.
Maddie live in Campbellsville with her dog Dottie.
