Nathan Healy is accustomed to double duty.
On the basketball court, the 6-foot-7 Appalachian State forward recorded seven double-doubles his senior season, finishing ninth in scoring (14.5 points) and second in rebounding (7.7) in the Southern Conference. He didn't just excel at offense. He was also named the league's Defensive Player of the Year.
In the classroom, the Walker College senior pursued a double major in finance and banking, and management. He finished his academic career with a 3.99 cumulative grade point average and became the first basketball player at Appalachian to be named an Academic All-American.
All that effort and success led to the New Bern native being named the Walker College Top Student of the Year for 2012-13.
He was recognized for his achievement during the business college’s annual honors convocation.
In addition to honoring the top overall student, the event recognizes the top students in each of the college’s nine undergraduate majors, two graduate disciplines and 21 student organizations. ...
He plans to play basketball overseas following graduation.
That's What I'm Talking About!
