Coaching

Ben Harrison - Head Coach - Ben joined the Lincoln team to replace the irreplaceable Jeff Koegler after Jeff moved to Madrid. Originally from Fort Collins, CO, Ben was a high school and college competitor in debate. With a B.A. in Political Science from Lewis & Clark College, Ben is currently a substitute teacher for the Portland Public School district. Ben has assisted his high school team with coaching, as well as assisted Cleveland High School with judging and their Speech classes. Ben is passionate about debate as an academic extracurricular activity. After having his life being shaped by the decision to take Argumentation and Debate as a high school sophomore, Ben realized that coaching debate would be a lifelong goal. He has a background in Public Forum debate, Parliamentary debate, and Extemporaneous Speaking. He also dabbled in limited prep interpretative events. He enjoys spending time canoeing with his wife and dogs, as well as backpacking, camping, and traveling around the world.
