Benjamin Natale-Short '20 Recruiting Profile

My name is Benjamin Natale-Short.  I am a junior at Newton North High School and I run the 400m and the 4x400m. My personal best for the 400m is 51.7 and my personal best for the 4x400m is 51.8. I played soccer and basketball all my life (varsity level in high school), but I decided to run track during the outdoor season of my sophomore year, following in my mother's, Liz Natale, footsteps, who ran cross-country, 1500m, and 3000m at the University of Texas at Austin. I have accomplished a lot after running just two seasons of outdoor track and I am just chipping away at the surface of my level of potential. I am a dedicated athlete who is looking forward to reaching my full potential as a collegiate track athlete.
