Norwich University's Strength & Conditioning program has been recognized as a Collegiate Program of Distinction by the National Strength and Conditioning Association, placing the Cadets among the first institutions in the country to earn the NSCA's newly established designation.

Introduced this year, the recognition is awarded to collegiate strength & conditioning programs that meet established professional standards in program supervision, coaching mentorship, program administration, and facility management. Norwich joins the University of Michigan among the early recipients of the distinction.

"The NSCA Program of Distinction isn't an award. It's a statement that you're doing this job the right way," Director of Strength & Conditioning Scott Caulfield said. "For us, that means safety is never negotiable, progression is always earned, and our athletes are supported by a staff that holds itself to the highest professional standard every single day.

"That recognition matters because it tells our athletes, our institution, and our profession that we aren't just meeting the bar. We're committed to raising it."

The three-year recognition highlights the standards behind a Norwich Strength & Conditioning program that supports more than 600 student-athletes while emphasizing athlete safety, professional development, coaching education, and mentorship.
