Coach’s Comment: Ben had an outstanding sophomore season and improved drastically to become a big contributor on both sides of the ball. He was our second leading WR and does an outstanding job of winning the 50/50 balls thrown his way. Ben is long, rangy and possesses a great set of hands. As he continues to learn the game and develop he will only get better.
