Major: Biotechnology

A dozen U.S. institutions were considering Antonio for their tennis teams, but he chose Indiana University because it has a strong tennis team and good academic programs. Athletics led to a unique research experience: a friend on the team connected Antonio to a professor who needed lab help. Three years later, he goes to tennis practice every day, but also makes time to work in the lab.
