π₯ PLAYER SPOTLIGHT π₯
Every team has a player coaches never have to worry about.
The player who shows up ready to work. The player who does the little things right. The player who can be counted on when the game is on the line.
For Wolfpack Elite 12U, that player is Ben Roberts.
A center, safety, and reliable target in the passing game, Ben has become one of the foundational pieces of the Wolfpack program. Whether he's hauling in passes, helping his quarterback out of a tough situation, or making plays on defense, his consistency stands out every single time he steps on the field.
π Favorite NFL Team: Kansas City Chiefs
β Which player does he model his game after?
"Rashee Rice. I think he's a great receiver, fast feet, has great hands and moves."
Ben's game reflects many of those same qualities. Strong hands, reliable routes, and the ability to make plays when the ball comes his way.
π€ Favorite Part of Playing Football:
"I love getting to know my team, building the trust and team spirit with them and just having fun playing the game."
For Ben, football is about more than wins and losses. It's about relationships, trust, and being part of something bigger than yourself.
πΊ What does it mean to be one of the founding members of Wolfpack Elite?
"To be part of the first players to help build up a team and program. It really is so cool to be part of something new."
As one of the original Wolfpack athletes, Ben is helping build the foundation that future players will stand on.
π£οΈ Coach Shane on Ben:
"Ben is the type of player you always find a spot for. He's your typical lunch-pail guy who is always ready to work whether it be practice or a tournament. He's as coachable as they come and my favorite part about himβhe's a big guy that can move. He's an athlete.
His hands are so soft you don't ever hear the ball hit them when he catches it. He's like a vacuum and pulls in anything that comes his way. He's extremely reliable for our 12U quarterbacks as an outlet but really shines when it's time to go up and get the ball.
Ben is a building block I hope to have in the program for a long time."
