Personal Statement

My name is Ben Barger and I am a junior in the class of 2026.  I have played football since the 4th grade when I fell in love with the game and I have been all-in ever since.  I can’t get enough of it and it is a year-round focus for me.  I am 6’2, 190 lbs. and I am a multi-position athlete.  This past season, I played TE and FB on offense and OLB and MLB on defense.  I put the same intense effort into my classes that I do with football.  My goal is to play football at the highest level possible and lead my team to championships.  For sports and especially football, brotherhood is the most important – winning comes after a family is built.  You need each other to succeed because you can’t finish the path alone.
