NFL STAR CEDRIC BENSON'S 1987 ABELL JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL YEARBOOK
Another nice collectible for your consideration. You are looking at a 1987 Abell Junior High School Yearbook (Midland, Texas), titled "Aerie" (and "The Aerie" on the cover page) and subtitled "see the writing on the WALL." This was the 8th grade school year for future NFL running back Cedric Benson. This also happens to be the year Benson begin to make a football name for himself. Benson is shown at least twice in the book. I didn't really look over it super close as so many photos are unlabled.
The book is in almost new condition. There are no student or school staff signatures, ownership tag or the like. No rips or writing. Strong tight binding. See my other products for more high school yearbooks featuring future sport legends, political stars, celebrities (or pre-celeb's) and notables.
Professional running back Cedric Myron Benson was born December 28, 1982 in Midland, Texas. Benson played football and baseball at Robert E. Lee High School, leading the football team to three consecutive State Championships and rushing for a total 15 touchdowns in the three championship games. During his high school career, Benson rushed for 8,423 career yards (fourth-most in Texas history/first in Class 5A history), scored 127 touchdowns (second-most in Texas history/third-most nationally) and averaged 183.1 yards and 2.8 touchdowns per game. Playing center fielder for the baseball team, Benson hit .361 with 4 home runs and 14 RBI's. The Los Angeles Dodgers drafted Cedric Benson in the 12th round of the 2001 MLB Draft. He played in the Dodger's summer league at Vero Beach and with the Dodgers Gulf Coast League, but left the team in 2003 to concentrate on football. Benson attended the University of Texas at Austin where he was a four-year starter and team rushing leader with the Texas Longhorns from 2001 to 2004, playing along side future NFL QB Vince Young. In 2004, Benson set the NCAA record for games with a touchdown, scoring his 36 TD against Kansas. He finished the 2004 season with 1834 rushing yards with 19 touchdowns and 179 yards with 1 touchdown, earning the 2004 Doark Walker Award.
The Chicago Bears selected Cedric Benson in the 1st round (4th pick overall) in the 2005 NFL Draft. He played with the Bears from 2005 to 2007. As a rookie, Benson started behind Thomas Jones but quickly replaced him as the featured back for the next two seasons.
Released by the Bears in June 2008, Benson was signed by the Cincinnati Bengals in Sept. He started the 2008 season behind Chris Perry, becoming the starting back in week 7. During that game, Benson ran over Steelers safety Troy Polamalu, giving the Pro Bowler a concussion. In the twelve games he was active during the 2008 season, Benson had 932 all-purpose yards, including 747 yards rushing and 185 yards receiving. Entering week 8 of the 2009 season, Benson had 164 carries for an NFL best 720 yards (4.4 per carry average). Despite missing three games, he finished the season as the NFL's 8th leading rusher with 1,251 yards, despite only playing 13 games. Benson also set a Bengals franchise season record with six games over 100 rushing yards.
