Xenia's Person fighting for starting job at right guard
The fourth-year junior lineman has proved he's finally ready, but he won't let his guard down.

COLUMBUS ? Offensive lineman Ben Person was willing to accept being relegated to the bench during his first two years at Ohio State, knowing he'd need some time before playing significantly.
But failing to crack the starting lineup as a third-year sophomore last season left the Xenia native more angry than a bull with a matador in its sights.
"I wasn't mad at (the coaches) at all ? I was upset with myself," he said. "I didn't put myself in position to be where I wanted to be."
