Hill, a graduate of the Rutgers-Camden Law School and a licensed New Jersey attorney, has been working side-by-side with Rutgers-Camden Director of Performance Enhancement Graig White since starting law school in 1999. He brings an extensive background in sports and a personal experience as a former athlete to White's staff.

Hill grew up in South Jersey, and graduated from Woodbury High School in 1995.

"After I played at Wake Forest, I was a student athletic trainer," Hill said. "I worked with the men's basketball team when Tim Duncan was there. I also worked with the football and track teams."

One of White's former clients, Hill worked out for several NFL, CFL and Arena football teams in the spring of 2001. He has been White's top assistant since 1999, working with high school, college and professional athletes from all team and individual sports.
