He has been selected to star in the tenth edition of ABC's The Bachelor. Andy, or Andrew, is also a world-class tri-athlete. Since he is a U.S. Navy officer they are titling this series as an Officer and a Gentleman.
Andy grew up in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where he was valedictorian in high school and a competitive swimmer who made All-American; he was even named ESPN's National Scholar Athlete of the Year in 1995. He grew up in a
… More small-town with a family of modest values who taught him a strong work ethic. As a teenager he worked three jobs (paper boy, lifeguard and his own lawn mowing business), all of this helped him pay for college. Andy is the first doctor who is also a military officer in his family. Before graduating high school he saved $25,000 for college, plus the Navy offered him a full ROTC scholarship. He took the scholarship and went to Duke University. At Duke he was a varsity letter winner on the men's swim team and began training for marathons, all while taking a pre-med courses and earning a degree in biology. He graduated Duke with honors and enrolled in University of California-San Francisco School of Medicine, and was a surgical intern at Naval Hospital San Diego.

After moving to the coast, Andy found the love for cycling, to add to his love of swimming and running to compete in his first triathlon in 2000. Since then he has gone on and competed internationally in numerous Ironman, Half-Ironman and other triathlons and marathons, often ranking among the top 5 finishers in his age group. His Uncle Tom was one of his beloved supporters. He died of pancreatic cancer just one month after diagnosis. In his uncle's honor, Andy established a fund to raise money for pancreatic cancer research, and has raised over $20,000.

    This guy is the whole package! hide show

    Andy Baldwin has it all going for him as a bachelor. I'm suprised someone hasn't snatched him up yet. He is handsome, kind, smart and just your all around loving family guy. I can't wait to see who he has fallin in love with. I think it will be Danielle but you never know. Any girl will be lucky to have such a great guy. All of the families where happy to meet him and thought he was such a wonderful man. Any father would be happy to have a son in law like Andy. What i like most about him is how he loves children so much.

    Do you agree?
