Working out on my scooter, opening gifts, solving puzzles and helping Daddy make cupcakes. There’s just no time to relax! And now I have to make time for swimming lessons.
Ben flew down to Florida with his Mom and Dad and while they were there, they got a text from Lindsey. She was passing a road sign to Tampa and thought it would be nice to send a photo to them back in Pittsburgh. But to her surprise, she found out that’s not where they were! She was in St. Petersburg….they were in Tampa. So Mark, Rachel and Ben drove across the bay to spend some beach-time with her and Garza!
BEN NOW A SPARTAN
Mark and Rachel took Ben to the University of Tampa where he will attend classes. He’s now a college student like his brothers!

And here is a very similar interview from 1988 when his dad was in a television interview after he was selected to play in the annual AAABAtournament in Johnstown.
Like father … like son!
