Dr. Arehart shares with Charlie Garden the distinction of being H-SC's first football All-Americans.  A versatile player in football, basketball, and track, his leadership qualities were outstanding.  He was considered one of the finest ends and punters in the Virginia Conference.  Dr. Arehart was an outstanding shooter in basketball and competed in the field events in track.  A fine student, he set an example in the classroom by making the Dean's List every semester.

He was born in Greenbrier County, West Virginia.  After graduating from Hampden-Sydney, he went to seminary and served pastorates in Charles Town, West Virginia, and other West Virginia locations.  He was called to the Farmville Presbyterian Church in 1956, and soon became closely identified with life on the H-SC campus.  Not only in the church-affiliated groups but in all areas of campus activities, he was a strong supporter and staunch friend.

He died on May 26, 1960, at the age of 51.
