Sinclair named new strength & conditioning coach

Marshall continues to fill holes on its coaching staff as Scott Sinclair has been hired as The Herd’s new head strength and conditioning coach.

“I am very excited to be working with Coach Holliday and Marshall, a program that is rich in its history and tradition,” said Sinclair. “I look forward to training our guys from both a mental and a physical standpoint and helping them achieve greatness.”

Sinclair was certified as a master strength and conditioning coach in May 2012, the highest honor in the field.  For the last nine seasons he has served as an associate director of strength and conditioning at UCF.  Sinclair was responsible for the Knights’ football speed and agility programs.  He also worked with the baseball and track and field programs.

The Rockingham, N.C. native worked as an assistant strength and conditioning coach at Georgia Tech from 2001-03 and spent time at Wake Forest from 1999-2001.

Sinclair earned his bachelor’s degree in sports medicine from Guilford College in 1999.
