Also state’s 2019-20 Gatorade Boys Track & Field Player of the Year, the 5-foot-11, 170-pound senior won the 110-meter high hurdles, the 300-meter intermediate hurdles, the long jump and tied for first in the 100-meter dash at the Class 6A state meet this past season, leading the Bulldogs to the team title. Sategna’s winning state-meet leap of 24 feet, 8 inches in the long jump set a state record and ranked No. 11 nationally among prep competitors in 2022 at the time of his selection. Sategna also set state records earlier in the spring in the 110 hurdles and 300 hurdles. A two-time All-State wide receiver for the Fayetteville High football team, he also won four individual state titles with the Bulldogs’ indoor track team last winter.
Sategna has maintained a 3.01 GPA in the classroom. He has signed a National Letter of Intent to attend the University of Arkansas this fall where he will play football and compete in track and field on scholarship.
Sategna has volunteered locally with the Special Olympics and as a youth track coach. He has also donated his time to multiple community service initiatives through his church youth group.
