Athletes are usually lucky to receive a scholarship to play for a Division I school due to the number of high school athletes in the nation. Of those that do play for a Division I school, even fewer play two sports for their school. However, for UAB Baseball’s Brewer Hicklen, this rarity turned into a reality.
Hicklen played both football and baseball for his alma mater, Huntsville High School. During his career at Huntsville, Hicklen was a standout quarterback, a team captain and was named to the National High School Invitational All-Tournament Team.
