Summary:To test whether 1) concussed athletes demonstrate slower tandem gait times compared to controls and 2) concussed female athletes display greater post-injury deficits than males. Prospective longitudinal Fifty concussed collegiate student-athletes (32% female, age=20.18±1.27 years) completed tandem gait tests during pre-season (Time 1) and acutely (
