Athletic trainers, coaches and registered dietitians have documented varied eating patterns in college athletes. At Eastern Michigan University, the basketball team's poor eating behavior and fatigue were noted by the coaching staff. Subsequently, a multi-disciplined group of professionals, including a psychologist, academic service center specialists, and dietitians formed TSAD and developed a program to address these issues. Informed consent was obtained for a serum anemia screening test. Also, CP dietetic students performed bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA, RJL Systems) and 24 hour dietary recall to evaluate nutritional status. During this assessment, the CP students asked 4 questions designed to assess fluid/hydration knowledge. Dietary analysis (Diet Analysis Plus, ESHA Research) revealed inadequate intakes of milk/dairy, vegetable and bread/grains groups as compared to the Food Guide Pyramid. The 12 players exceeded the fats/sweets recommendations with an average 35 servings/player being consumed; however, meat intake guidelines were met. The majority of players drank fruit juices to meet the recommended fruit intake. BIA indicated 9 of 12 players were within desirable body weight and composition ranges. Three players were candidates for weight gain regimens. Fluid/hydration questions revealed 33% of the team did not know the important role hydration plays in performance. Academic study table and psychological support sessions were scheduled to enhance student learning and well-being. After this assessment, EMU coaches instituted fruit supplementation after all practice sessions and water breaks increased in frequency during practice. The coaching staff, subjectively, noted that players maintained peak performance through the basketball season.
