Gabriel Harrington enters his fifth year with the Army Black Knights Strength and Conditioning program, his second as Associate Head Strength and Conditioning Coach.
Harrington was a standout for Hillsdale College football as a special team’s player, earning 4 varsity letters and academic All-American honors, as well as All-Conference for special teams in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, averaging 5 tackles per year as a long snapper.
After graduating from Hillsdale College (2000) with a bachelor’s degree in physical education, Harrington went on to pursue a Master’s degree in Biomechanics at Michigan State University (2005). There he worked as Graduate Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach with football, helping the Spartans to the Silicon Valley Football Classic Bowl (2002).
Since then, Harrington has worked diligently with the Black Knights strength and conditioning program, assisting with football and heading up the men’s basketball, men’s and women’s tennis and swim/dive strength and conditioning programs. Coach Harrington also travels to Fort Sill, Oklahoma each summer to train the football athletes who are there for leadership experience. This has been a pioneering and highly advantageous situation for keeping the continuity of the strength and conditioning program throughout the summer months.
Along with his work as strength and conditioning coach, Harrington has authored original biomechanical research on the long snap for football, developing ground breaking techniques for coaching the skill as well as producing an original DVD on the subject.
Harrington is a certified strength and conditioning coach through the Collegiate Strength and Conditioning Coaches Association as well as the National Strength and Conditioning Association and holds a Masters Degree in Biomechanics.
