Hubert earns Midwest Scholarship

New Berlin - Luke Hubert, a New Berlin native, is one of the two recipients of the 2012 Tim & Tom Gullikson USTA/Midwest Section Scholarship.

Hubert, who plays varsity tennis at New Berlin West, has seen his team win the conference championship twice, and Hubert was named the team's Most Valuable Player three times. In addition to playing varsity high school tennis, Hubert also competed in his local USTA Jr. Team Tennis program in his community.

Off the tennis court, Hubert is a college AP scholar and academic all conference. He has been involved in student government and this year serves as senior class president. He is also a member of the National Honor Society and participates on the Math Team.

Hubert has volunteered through his high school for two servant projects in Virginia and Idaho. He plans to study pre-medicine when he attends college this coming fall, and play collegiate tennis.

The Midwest Youth Tennis & Education Foundation established this scholarship in 1998 to recognize Tim and Tom Gullikson, and to reward young players with funding to advance their education and tennis interests. Each year, a $2,500 Tim & Tom Gullikson USTA/Midwest Section Scholarship is presented to one male and one female junior tennis player from the USTA/Midwest Section.
