<p>Robert Delgado was sitting in the counseling area at Southside High School in San Antonio in February when he heard some University of Houston-Victoria recruiters talking about the university.</p> <table align="right" border="0" cellpadding="3" style="bordercollapse: collapse;" width="100"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="bordercollapse: collapse;"><img alt="Robert Delgado" src="images/Uploads/underclassmen/DelgadoRobert.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; float: right;" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="middle" style="bordercollapse: collapse;"><font size="1">Robert Delgado</font></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>&ldquo;I was like, &lsquo;Wow. That sounds like a great opportunity,&rsquo;&rdquo; he said.</p> <p>The rest is history. Delgado applied to UHV that same day and was accepted about two weeks later. Now he will be one of UHV&rsquo;s FIRST 200 freshmen in the fall. He plans on majoring in biology and then getting his Bachelor of Science in Nursing. He eventually would like to be a nurse practitioner.</p> <p>&ldquo;I like that Victoria is a small town, and it&rsquo;s slower paced,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;I&rsquo;ll be able to focus more on my school work.&rdquo;</p> <p>Delgado was on the power lifting team at his high school this year and played football his freshman year.</p>
