Ben Yoder '20 Recruiting Profile

Hello, thank you for reviewing my profile. I believe and almost live by the saying, hard work beats talent when talent fails to work hard. Everyday I think to myself, what can I do today to make myself better and put me ahead of the competition. That includes running or conditioning, weightlifting, drills and other things. I'm always looking for a way to improve and be better than yesterday. I have been playing football for as long as I can remember, if it was just playing football with my dad in the living room as a toddler or playing on the school team starting in second grade. This year I am doing wrestling and the last two years I have also done track and I plan on doing both sports through my senior year. But I try and do more than just sports. I help run the tech at my local church with my dad and in the winter I shovel the sidewalks there too. Family is also very important to me, I live in a family with eight other people in it. Having so many siblings in my family has taught me patience and perseverance and many other qualities like these.
