The German University Athlete of the Year comes from the University of Hohenheim: The German University Sports Association (adh) honored Wiwi student Frederic Kindler on Sunday for outstanding results at this year's Summer University Games in Naples, where he won silver with the sabre and the sabre team.

Adh board member Johanna Becker praised the Hohenheim fencer "as one of the best in Germany, which he proved more than once this year."

Due to a World Cup event in Egypt, Frederic Kindler could not personally accept the award in Hamburg. In a video greeting message he explained that "the award is a special one which I will cherish."

The adh honored Caterina Granz of the FU Berlin as Female University Athlete of the Year.
