Derek Robertson

I'm currently in Grad school at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, getting my Master's degree in Sports Management. Sports are a huge part of my life, pretty much what I do. I've played sports as long as could walk, and haven't stopped yet. I'm involved with the athletic department at SIU and love college athletics.
