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 Players- Mike Geisser



Hey, my name is Mike Geisser and I am a sophomore here at Hartwick. I am from East Hanover, New Jersey and attended Hanover Park High School before I got to college. I am currently majoring in Business Administration and have been enjoying my time in Oneonta on and off the court. Besides playing basketball I love to spend time with my family and friends along with watching movies.

Last year's season was the most exciting basketball experience I have ever been apart of. Winning the Empire 8 championship and making the NCAA tournament was an outstanding accomplishment and we are looking to come back even stronger this year. Practice has already started and I am definitely looking forward to another great season.
