Benjamin Valdes '22 Recruiting Profile

Hello Coaches, 

My name is Benjamin Valdes, but I go by Benji. I am completing my senior year of highschool at Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe High. I am not only atheletically strong but academically as well. I maintain A's and B's in the classroom on top of sports all year round. I play football, wreslting, and baseball. Football is my number one sport and my goal is to recieve a scholarship to further my career both academically and atheletically. I play on both offense and defense as running back and middle linebacker. Receiving a scholarship to play the sport I love would help release a finanical stressload giving me the opportunity to further my education to become successful. I am a responsible, dedicated person who leads by example. I enjoy helping motivate those around me. Loyalty, honesty, communication, and effort are keys aspects and being successful and I believe I carry all four. I adapt to change well which allows me to be placed anywhere on the field. I will spend the extra time learning the position to help better benefit my team. I have worked extremely hard to get to where I am now in life and I hope to one day be able to achieve my goal and continue further. 

Thank you, 

Benji Valdes
