On and off the court, I came into OWU not knowing who I was and with (Coach Postma's) help and the guys on the team, I finally found a rhythm

Meet the Bishops:  Get to know a little about Miller Buckholz of the Ohio Wesleyan men's tennis team.

Name:  Miller Buckholz

Class year:  Junior

Major:  Bachelors of Fine Arts in Studio Art, concentrations in ceramics and graphic design

How/Why did you choose your major?
I was always interested in art but never made any major decisions about it. I came into OWU undecided, tried out a couple art classes and knew what I would want to do because I love making art.

What is your favorite memory on an Ohio Wesleyan team?
Our spring break trips have created amazing memories that I will never forget. The countless tennis appreciation nights and bonding with both teams are memories I will never forget.

What event/sport other than your own would you like to try?
Volleyball definitely, or ultimate frisbee sounds fun.

Is there a specific coach or teammate who has helped you get to where you are?
Coach Postma, he's helped make me who I am today. On and off the court, I came into OWU not knowing who I was and with his help and the guys on the team, I finally found a rhythm.

What are your plans after graduation?
Not quite sure yet, maybe along the lines of a master's program in graphic design or ceramics or get a certification to become a tennis coach.

What is your favorite place to eat in Delaware, and what is your go-to dish there?
Restoration Brew Worx is fantastic, their house burger is sweet.

What is your theme song?
For Whom the Bell Tolls by Metallica

Which three people, living or dead, would you like to share a meal with?
LeBron James, Roger Federer, Joe Rogan.
