It has been well-chronicled over recent weeks about former UW-Whitewater baseball player, Eric Baldwin, donating $200,000 to the Warhawk baseball program.
I just read a story on the Babes Love Baseball Blog.
How does the 2006 UW-Whitewater graduate afford to donate "2 large" back to his school? As most of you already know, Eric is an accomplished professional poker player. In 2009, the former Warhawk baseball team captain earned a not to shabby $1.5 million!
Success on the pro poker circuit isn't a huge surprise to me. He was already an "up and comer" at "Texas Hold-Em" while still in school in Whitewater.
Now having his UW-Whitewater psychology degree and success on the professional poker scene, Eric is just another example great success for a UW-Whitewater graduate.
Thanks Eric!!
