NAME: Derek Hug
HOMETOWN: Bryan, Ohio
YEAR: Senior
MAJOR: Biology with Pre-Medicine concentration
SPORT: Baseball
I chose to attend Heidelberg:
there was just something different about it than any other school I visited. It felt like home to me and I loved it from the second I stepped on campus.
The best part about playing a sport at Heidelberg is:
the time spent with teammates. The memories that I have made with my teammates on and off the field will be something that I will never forget.
Heidelberg is unique because:
of all the great people here. I am so blessed to have such great professors, coaches, teammates, and friends and that's what makes Heidelberg special. I am also thankful for all of the opportunities that Heidelberg has provided me.
My career goal is to:
continue playing baseball if that opportunity presents itself or to further my education and pursue a career in the medical field.
While at Heidelberg:
I have been a Student Manager in the Office of Admissions, a Resident Assistant, Teaching Assistant, Tutor, HU Scholar's Day speaker, and presented twice at the Student Research Conference.
