Watson a third-generation center at Hiawatha
KIRKLAND – Ben Watson was given fair warning going into Hiawatha’s first game of the season against Ottawa.
Before making his first career varsity start at center, Watson heard the story of his dad’s first game at center when he was in high school.
“[My dad] said multiple times when I was learning how to do shotgun snaps, ‘You have to start practicing these.’ ” Ben said. “ ‘When I did it, the first game, the first shotgun snap I did went clear over the quarterback’s head.’ ”
