Benjamin Mack '17 Recruiting Profile

Hello, my name is Benjamin Mack, but I primarily go by Ben.  I am currently a senior at Ripley High School in Ripley, West Virginia.  I am currently 17 years of age and my birthday is December 15, 1998.  My aspirations for college is to earn a business degree so that one day I may be able to own and operate my own business.  I also have a strong interest in playing college baseball.  I have been playing baseball since I was 4 years of age.  I have developed a strong love for the game, and I have always loved this game ever since I first picked up a baseball.  It has always been a dream of mine to play collegiate baseball.  What separates me from other recruits is that I work extremely hard to reach my goals.  I will do whatever it takes to achieve my goals, even if it means that I have to do things that I would prefer not doing.  I have this same mindset for academics and athletics.  My character and work ethic are proven since I work on my game mostly on my own, while nobody else is watching.  I am a person who works hard and is easy to get along with.  I am looking forward to seeing what opportunities approach my life in the future.
