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- Victor Angeline




Hey, My name is Victor Angeline, I'm a sophomore here at Hartwick College. I went to Rutgers Preparatory School in Central New Jersey, and I have had a great experience so far in Oneonta, NY. I am majoring in Economics and minoring in Finance, but I will probably add another minor depending on the branch of economics I decide to study.


In last year's blog, I recalled one of my greatest basketball moments as winning the Prep B State championship in my junior of high school, where we came back from a 20 points down in the first quarter to claim the title in the final moments of the fourth in a packed gymnasium. However, last year that memory was topped when we won the Empire 8 championship and earned a bid in to the Division III NCAA tournament. Here at Hartwick, we have a great group of guys on and off the court, and I am looking forward to having another successful season.



Aside from class and basketball, I am a Blue Key tour guide in admissions and an Economic tutor. I enjoy watching movies and keeping up television sitcoms and the latest sports news. Back home, I love to spend time with my family and catch up with friends.
