Ben Somers '21 Recruiting Profile

I love the game of football and have been growing up all around it. Football has taught me a lot about discipline, teamwork, and perseverance that I will carry with me throughout my life. I would do anything for the game, and I am willing to do whatever it takes to play at the next level. The transition from being a wide receiver/ running back to a quarterback has really taught me a lot. Being a quarterback means taking care of your teammates and pushing through adversity so your teammates could feed off of your energy. It has taught me that even if you have a bad practice or not a great game you have to forget about it not only for yourself but for your teammates. Your teammates rely on the quarterback to lead the team and not get down at any point of time. Football has taught me that it is not just a game but it is family and a bunch of guys coming together and competing together. Football is probably one of the best things that has happened to me and to be around it for another four years after high school would be a dream come true.
