Denison University

Dr. William Druckemiller '68 is a four-year letter winner in men's basketball from 1964-68. The all-around threat averaged 13.3 points per game and 13.5 rebounds per game for his career while playing for some of Denison's best teams in the late 1960s. As a junior in 1966-67, Druckemiller posted career-highs in points per game (18.9) and rebounds per game (16.1) while ranking 10th in the nation in field goal percentage at 60.7. 

A two-time first-team All-Ohio Athletic Conference pick, Druckemiller was a star in the classroom as well. The Academic All-America award and the NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship have become two of hallmark awards that can be obtained by a Denison student-athlete. Druckemiller holds the distinction of being Denison's very first recipient of both prestigious awards. Since 1967, Denison has gone on to produce 98 Academic All-Americans and 51 NCAA Postgraduate Scholars, ranking them among Division III's elite in both categories.

After Denison, Druckemiller attended Yale Medical School and has been practicing neurosurgeon for over 40 years in Hartford, Connecticut.
