Benjamin earned male player of the week honors after helping the Patriots defeat Union 33-30 in the Battle for the Brass Lantern last Saturday. In the first quarter Benjamin intercepted a Union pass and returned it for a 21-yard pick six to give the Patriots a 14-0 lead. Late in the game, Benjamin made one of the plays of the game as he recovered a fumble off a botched PAT and returned it 99 yards for two points. That play made it a one possession game at 23-30, instead of a 21-31 score. He’s eight points were crucial in the Pats win.
