Ben Welborn

Zephyrus: What activities are you involved in?

Ben Wellborn: I’m involved in Edina Cross Country, Edina Track and Field. I am involved with the Edina bands, particularly I really like the marching band. And then, I’m with the Edina Hornet Thespians Club.

Z: Who is your favorite movie, TV, or book character and why? 

BW: I would choose the rebel from the Breakfast Club because he does an epic fist in the air, and he goes out with a bang. 

Z: What has your favorite memory from high school been so far? 

BW: To be honest, it’s been being on the court as I have been able to meet such a great group of people and have a great time. 

Z: If you could choose to have any superpower, what would you choose? 

BW: It would be wisdom. I want to help people in their time of need.

Z: What does being on court mean to you?

BW: It’s a great honor to represent everyone in the school, and since I’m hard of hearing, I get to represent the hard of hearing community as well, which is usually really quiet. And I think it’s a great way to help people recognize that being hard of hearing doesn’t mean you have to be quiet all the time.
