Bennett Richter (22) plans to further his academic and athletic career at Augustana College this fall. He will study business and play baseball there. Richter plays for Eaton’s baseball team and BB Elite Club Team. He has been a prominent leader on the field and in the hallways of Eaton High School.

Richter said, “The most important thing to me as a leader in the school is to be a person people can reach out to and ask for help whenever they need it. Being approachable and helpful is very important to me”. Leaders like Richter support the positive culture of EHS.

He exemplifies the EATON acronym through his actions and leadership. “The most important letter of the EATON acronym is excellence. Eaton High School has a history of excellence within its athletic programs and even in the classroom. To be a part of that legacy has meant a lot to me,” said Richter.

Richter’s legacy is more than just academic success and a state championship. “The legacy I hope to leave behind is hard work and giving 100% to everything I put my mind to,” said Richter.
