The Defiance College baseball program has added recent Delta High School graduate Hunter Hamilton to its list of incoming talented recruits for the 2021-2022 academic school year.  Hunter manned the shortstop position for the Panthers the past three seasons after playing third base during his freshman year.

He waited until about one month after the high school baseball season to make his decision on which college to attend to continue his education and baseball career. “They really sold me.  I like the culture they have over there and I think I can help them out,” said Hunter, explaining his reason to become a Yellow Jacket baseball player.

This summer, to help prepare for competition at the collegiate level, Hunter is playing American Legion baseball for the perineal state Legion powerhouse, Napoleon River Bandits.  The Bandits have just returned from a tournament in Minnesota where they won four games and lost just one.

In the classroom, Hunter will be majoring in Education with a minor in Sports Management with the end goal of becoming an athletic director.
