The Savannah Bananas aren't your typical baseball team. They're in a league of their own, redefining the game by challenging the way baseball is "supposed to be" played. Think dancing players and funny skits turning every game into a big show. Noah's got game, but what caught the Bananas' attention was his willingness to be a bit goofy, let loose, and have fun. Because for the Bananas, it's not just about playing ball; it's about embracing the joy of the game, on and off the field.
“ It’s surreal. Seeing the work behind the scenes and the hours put in to make the game what it is today is out of this world. ”
Grateful for this opportunity post-college, Noah is living the dream. From the familiar mound at Capaha Park to Bananaland, he now proudly wears the Bananas jersey, bringing his 'rowdy' spirit to every game. Noah's advice for aspiring college athletes? "Keep working, keep pushing. Keep fighting through the adversity that you encounter and remind yourself how bad you want it.”
