She clearly doesn’t want the attention.
The UCLA Bruins trainer who became an internet sensation after they beat the Washington Huskies last Thursday has been identified.
Unfortunately, she has also made her social media profiles private and recently deleted her Instagram account.
The trainer, who has since been IDd as Alexa Blatt, went viral after photos from the 82-80 win hit the interwebs. The win saw the Bruins improve to 6-2, yet their trainer was all folks could talk about.
Why? Because cameras caught her squatting next to a player on the bench.
The player in question was accused of faking an injury, for obvious reasons.
“Dude’s definitely faking an injury,” the sharing account joked.

UCLA Bruins Trainer Goes Into Hiding
As mentioned above, the trainer has been identified and gone private on social media. If you want to see her posts, you’re going to have to chance a follow and hope she approves.
Blatt is also listed on the UCLA official website, where she’s described as an associate athletic trainer.
She’s responsible for day-to-day training and oversees sports medicine interns.
The Nova Southeastern University graduate has been with the school for seven years. However, this season is her first with the men’s basketball program. She works with the women’s golf program, too.
“Among Blatt’s athletic training experience and specializations include Graston Technique (a form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization), manual therapy, myofascial cupping technique and the functional movement screen,” her profile reads.
Alexa spent her first six seasons with the women’s basketball team and track and field programs.
