McClain High School is located in Greenfield, Ohio. Edward Lee McClain was born in 1861 and grew up in Greenfield. He became wealthy through his hard work, vision and industry development. A philanthropist and lifetime resident of southern Ohio, Mr. McClain presented the community with a gift to build a school, which began construction in 1914. The high school is a wonderful facility loaded with paintings, murals, statues throughout the classrooms and hallways – magnificent and a must see.
When Edward Lee McClain presented his gift, his chief idea was having an institution for the ‘ betterment and happiness’ of the individuals involved. Over a hundred years later the McClain High School continues to transform, redesigning a building exclusively for the physical development of the student athlete.
The school now has a 10,000 square foot strength and conditioning space and a former athletic director, strength coach, college and professional football player – Mark Bihl – selected to manage and develop the school’s athletic performance.
A great addition and place for each student athlete to train and Get Strong.

Plymouth State University Strength and Performance Lab
Recently Athletic Business Media, Inc. published the following article regarding their choice of Facility of the Week.
Morgridge Strength & Performance Lab Plymouth State University
Construction Cost: $2.52 million
Area / Square Feet: 17,500
Occupancy Date: September 2022
The Morgridge Strength & Performance Lab transforms the strength and conditioning experience for Plymouth State University students and athletes in a renovated field house. At 17,500 square feet, it is the largest strength and conditioning facility in NCAA Division III athletics.
The renovation triples capacity, significantly enhancing university recruitment and retention, and plays a crucial role in the hands-on learning of clinical-academic programs. The lab is equipped with 24 weight racks and platform lifting stations, along with treadmills, elliptical machines, stationary bikes, weight training machines, and a 45-yard strip of synthetic turf dedicated to rehabilitation, functional and speed training, ensuring each team has ideal training resources. The design celebrates Plymouth State University’s branding through experiential graphics and interior design to brighten the once-dark space.
Prior to the renovation, the facility could only accommodate one or two of the 25 varsity teams at a time, forcing many student-athletes to train late into the evening. The new design was driven by the urgent need to expand the university’s resources, aiming to enhance spaces for athletes, students and staff. The design also incorporates new electrical, plumbing and mechanical systems, reducing the university’s carbon footprint while improving air quality, energy efficiency and thermal comfort. Lighting was strategically designed and placed to prevent visual discomfort or distraction.
