Representing Class A, Section 2, and Mayer Lutheran High School, rising senior RB/DB/ATH Ben Lindesmith Ben Lindesmith Ben Lindesmith 6'0" | 175 lbs | ATH/DB Mayer Lutheran | 2027 MN has some eye-catching 2025 film that has cemented himself as a stock riser set to enter the Ranking’s Big Board in the coming days, along with a couple dozen talented peers. Lindesmith, like many talented Minnesotans before him, is a standout multi-sport football/basketball hybrid, and he averaged 19 PPG, 13.2 RPG, 3 APG through the first five games of his 2025-26 basketball highlights, which can be found on his Twitter account.

However, Lindesmith is electric on the gridiron, particularly as a RB, where his quickness, vision, contact balance, and determination combi showed up in awe-inspiring fashion, breaking five or six tackles on a ridiculous opening play of his junior highlights on a out route reception and ensuing electric YAC effort. Lindesmith nearly returned a couple kickoffs for six early into his junior highlights, showing off some serious explosiveness, get-up, and vision as a multi-phase contributor that had pursuers going all-out in an effort to stop his singular splash play ability. The 175 lber. owns the speed to take the top off the defense, can cut at top speed, and has the juice to finish big runs and catches for six. Lindesmith demonstrates good ball skills and concentration that can reel in receptions through big, oncoming contact from defensive backs, and he’s dangerous in the open field and can make free defenders miss 1v1 and in space. Plus, the Mayer product goes all-out and gets the most out of every time he touches the rock, displays eye-catching slipperiness, balance through contact, and fight for his size. DIIIs, NAIAs, and JUCOs, add him to your Big Boards ASAP! And Ben, we’d love to see you at the PRZMN Spring Exposure Series’ stop in Plymouth on April 18th.

Thankful to be selected 2nd team all MCAA conference. @gocruhoops @mr_fuerte91 @mn_select @AndOneFilms @RyanJamesMN @streethistory @CoachMuel pic.twitter.com/8NpYTn1Sjc
