Big Ben is returning after a great 11th grade season as a starting close defenseman. Ben uses his size and deceptive speed to shut down his opposing attackman, but it is his ability to slide and help out his teammates that truly makes him so valuable. Ben's season highlight last year was his game ball performance in Exeter's 13-7 victory over Governor Dummer. Look for Ben to continue to improve both as a defensive player and in his ability to clear the ball. Ben is also a goalkeeper for the varsity hockey team during the winter.
