Benjamin Conken Remembered by Argonauts | Mobile News

A beloved 20-year-old football player and student at the University of West Florida, Benjamin Conken, has tragically passed away after a courageous battle with cancer. A promising redshirt sophomore for the Argonauts, he left an indelible mark on his team through grit, heart, and kindness. Coach Kaleb Nobles praised his tenacity and deep love for the game, while teammates remember him as a compassionate soul whose presence lifted everyone around him. In honor of Benjamin, the team will observe a moment of silence at their first home game on August 27th against Southern Illinois and wear special helmet stickers throughout the season — a tribute to a player who gave everything on and off the field.
