Heath Benedict Newberry College found dead

Post by Who9Dey »

Heath was a 2 time all american for Div II and got to play in the under armor all american game and was at the combine last month and he was in the top 6 out of all offensive tackles in the 40, broad jump and long jump. Newberry is in the South atlantic conference.
I guess playing in Newberry noone around here knows him but I have followed him the past 2 years since Newberry college is where I played Basketball back in the 80's. I went down to Newberry last year for a reunion and everyone told me we had our first pro and it would be Heath.
I was so excited about the draft this year, noone from Newberry has ever been drafted, he was a top 10 tackle and in 2 mock drafts before the combine he was a 3rd rounder to SF or phila.
I was reading about heath today and he was a great teammate and person too. I was going to wear my Newberry gear on draft day and cheer for him when he got drafted. I will still wear it for him.
God bless you and your family, such a shame for a 24 year old.
