Early Years To Present
Hamilton played his high school football at Dillon High School. His senior season in high school, Hamilton had more interceptions returned for touchdowns than receptions returned for touchdowns. His high school career totals were 36 catches for 745 yds and 9 TD's. This was mainly because his high school team mostly ran the ball. He had eight kickoffs returned for scores (plus eight more returned for touchdowns that were called back for penalties), and eight INT's with 3 returned for scores. Now he is married to Kim (Shelton) Hamilton from Whitmire, South Carolina. Kim coached Varsity Girls Basketball for Whitmire High School in Whitmire, SC and she is currently the Assistant Principal at Newberry High School. They reside in Newberry, South Carolina.

—Gerald Early (b. 1952)
“There are those who say to you—we are rushing this issue of civil rights. I say we are 172 years late.”
—Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)
“For present joys are more to flesh and blood
Than a dull prospect of a distant good.”
