Hilltop Happenings

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT: BRANDON ROUGHLEY '20 

1. What have you learned in your time on the Hilltop that's been most useful to you and has had the most impact on your life thus far?

Being a student-athlete, I’ve learned how to manage my time wisely in order to fulfill all of my requirements, along with playing basketball. The friends and connections I have made on campus will most likely last for a long time, and I’m grateful for the opportunity that I have been given here at Salisbury. All of my teachers are great people and help me whenever I am struggling; they genuinely care about how you are learning and will go out of their way to help you if you need it. For athletics, the competition I play while here at Salisbury has helped me become a better player and has prepared me for the next level. I feel that the connections the coaches have had and the advice they have given me will help me for college and beyond.

2. What's your favorite place on campus and why?

My favorite place on campus is the athletic center. During my free time, I am usually in the fitness center or on the courts. I spend most of my time here, and have a lot of fun doing physical activities. Other than the athletic center, Belin Lodge is also a favorite of mine. I like being able to go to Belin to hang out with friends and get good food.

3. What's your favorite activity and why? 

My favorite activity here on the Hilltop is basketball. Basketball is what led me to come to Salisbury, and it has given me opportunities to do and see a lot of things that I wouldn’t have been able to if I didn’t play. My favorite time of the year is winter, solely because it is basketball season, and I get to look forward to practices and games after class each day. Other than basketball, I would say hanging out with friends around campus is my second favorite thing to do. I like playing video games with the boys when I’m bored, and also meet new people and make new friends.

Now, that's a Knight!
