Benjamin Ortner (born March 16, 1983) is a former Austrian professional basketball player who last played for Pallacanestro Reggiana of the Italian Lega Basket Serie A (LBA).

Early years and college career

Ortner was born and raised in Innsbruck, Austria, where he attended primary and secondary school. Prior to his junior year of high school, he decided to study abroad for a year in the United States where he attended St. Joseph Notre Dame High School, a well-known basketball school based in Alameda (CA).Шаблон:Fact

Due to unfounded allegations made by other competing schools in the region, CIF forced Ortner to sit out the majority of the 1999-2000 season, eventually clearing him to play in the final four games of the year. That year, Ortner and St. Joseph's advanced to regional semi-finals where they lost to eventual champions and USA Today's #10 ranked team in the country, De La Salle of Concord.Шаблон:Fact
