About Hartwick Basketball

Oneonta, New York, United States
Hartwick is among the North East’s elite liberal art colleges both academically and athletically. Hartwick has a reputation of academic excellence and offers a most diverse selection of degree programs, with a strong emphasis on a liberal arts education. Our campus is truly beautiful. We are located on a scenic 425-acre site on the northern slopes of New York’s Catskill Mountains, in Oneonta, a town considered by some experts to be among the top ten best college towns in America. Hartwick offers a small college atmosphere; as the student/faculty ratio is 11 to 1, and the average classroom size is 15. Yet we are only 70 minutes from the state capital, Albany, and two and a half hours from New York City. This setting provides an ideal atmosphere academically, athletically, and socially for the aspiring student-athlete. Combine these facts with tremendous facilities, a great schedule, and a major commitment to the basketball program, and you can see why Hartwick basketball has made the final four and is a true Division III Giant! As a member of the Empire 8 Conference, Hartwick competes successfully in one of the premier Division III conferences in the country.

Meet the Hartwick Hawks- Sophomore ERIC MINGOS


Hello my name is Eric Mingos and I am a sophomore. I am from Whitney Point NY which is about 10 minutes north of Binghamton. I am sociology major and interested in the criminal justice aspect of it.

I enjoyed this past summer hanging with friends, working, and playing some ball. I enjoy watching and playing football, baseball, and obviously basketball. My favorite teams are the New York Yankees, Houston Rockets, and of course the notorious St. Louis Rams. My favorite sport figures are Yao Ming and Marc Bulger because they are absolutely the most dominant players in their sport.

I had a wonderful experience last year with basketball, school, and the college lifestyle. Having enjoyed last year, I was looking forward to starting another year. I am excited in having another successful year on and off the court this year. I hope you can come and support the team.
