UNC lineman Lemming had tough recovery

Posted Aug 28, 2006

Last season never happened as far as Ben Lemming is concerned. 2005 was a lost year for Lemming, an offensive lineman. He was hurt in UNC's first game, suffering a serious injury to his right shoulder. He is back for UNC, fighting for a starting job again and helping at another position, after a great deal of hard work and overcoming days when he wondered if he could come back.
