Following his graduation from Madison Central High School, Ben opted to remain in his home state of Kentucky and signed with the Colonels. Wasting no time, Fisher exploded onto the scene and earned Freshman All-American honors his first year on campus by logging 55 starts and swinging the bat at a .286 clip. Fisher followed his strong debut with another successful campaign a year ago as a sophomore, in which he continued his strong performance at the plate in the form of a remarkable 28-game on-base streak and cemented himself as a defensive mainstay with a near-perfect fielding percentage of .991 at first base. Now in his third season occupying the starting first baseman job for Eastern Kentucky, Fisher is a career .277 hitter, with nine home runs, and 76 runs batted in. Fisher is a native of Richmond, Kentucky.
