Lineman’s challenge brings athletes to Velocity Sports Performance

Velocity Sports Performance recently held a Lineman’s Challenge where football players from numerous area schools competed to prove their supremacy.

“My original thought when creating the Lineman’s Challenge was to give the guys up front a chance to bask in the spotlight and have the time of their life doing it.Ê For coaches, I wanted them to capitalize on the times and measurements as a pre-season evaluation,” saidÊTed Knapp, Sales Director, Velocity Sports Performance. Overall, I’d say mission accomplished!”
