One of the best basketball players to play at Hampden-Sydney, Ralph Baker is the only player ranked among H-SC's top-six career leaders in scoring (1,780/4th), steals (258/1st), and assists (291/6th).  Twice a first team All-ODAC performer, Baker led the Tigers to the ODAC title and first-ever NCAA bid as a senior in 1989.

The point guard also earned first team all-region honors as a junior and senior.  He was a standout on the baseball diamond as well, helping H-SC to its only ODAC baseball title as a senior.  His senior-year stats included a 1.87 ERA and a 3-1 record in 43.3 innings pitched.

A native of Farmville, Baker attended Prince Edward County High School.  He currently works for Prudential Insurance in Newark, NJ, as a senior associate in corporate mergers and acquisitions.
