Ben Smith
He’s back racking up stats.
Coupeville grad Ben Smith made his season debut for the Lakeland University football team Saturday, recording three tackles and a sack as the Muskies crunched Rockford 35-7 in Plymouth, Wisconsin.
The victory lifts Lakeland to 1-0 in Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference play, 1-2 overall.
The Muskies have a 10-game regular season schedule which stretches through mid-November.
Smith, an All-Conference pick at running back during his days as a Wolf, is in his first season at Lakeland, where he’s a linebacker.
A graduate transfer, he previously played ball at Concordia Chicago and Eureka College, after redshirting at Culver-Stockton College.
His degree from Concordia is in criminal justice, and Smith is working towards a master’s at Lakeland in leadership and organizational development.
