Congratulations to Ben on his college choice and good luck in the future! (Hope you have some winter underwear and Lands End boots Ben . . . and don’t forget to stop by the Olympic Arena in Lake Placid at some time!)   Name Ben Fuchs High School Calvary Christian Academy Graduation Year 2018 College Choice SUNY Potsdam Club Affiliations Select Lacrosse     Why did you choose this college? The few times I visited I really fell in love with the atmosphere and environment. Coach Berkman is a great man who cares about his players and pushes them to be the best. Potsdam lacrosse is a program on the rise and I hope to contribute to future success for the program. What are your first memories of the sport? I started playing intramurals at WA when I was in 1st grade and my dad was a coach. What part of the process was most surprising to you about the recruiting process and what would you like to pass on to those who are going to face it in the future? I was surprised by how much the coaches were willing to talk to me and how interested they were in having me play for them. Advice I would give for the next generations would be to start early and be aware of others around you that want to help you. Who would you like to thank for helping you get here? I would like to thank my Dad, Mom, Coach Bond (high school coach), Ajay Joseph, and Coach Berkman for guiding me throughout the process.
