SENIOR SPOTLIGHT: Nemmer Back Down, Nemmer give up!

Woah, it’s Noah! Noah might be one of the courageous, caring, and genuine students whose aura radiates through everyone around him. At a glance, you would think Noah’s life has been perfect; his smile and warm personality make him one of the most likable people. But life has been anything but perfect for him. At the beginning of the freshman year, Noah’s father passed away. From then on, he developed his fortitude and faith, which helped him overcome the unexpected setback.

His father, much like everyone else, was a significant person in his life. “My father was a role model in my life. He mentored me and brought me to find my love for baseball.” From freshman year, Noah was pressured to grow up fast, but proved his maturity in dealing with such a tragedy. Losing his father was rough for Noah, but since then has grown and learned many lessons. “I realized that nothing is certain in life. You can’t take things for granted.”

Ever since Noah was 4 years old, and much like his father, he had a knack for baseball. From t-ball to machine pitch, to high school, he has been on a tear picking up offers from Division 3 colleges. “Baseball was a huge part of my life. My father introduced me to the sport when I was little and kindled my love for the game. Since then, my baseball team has become a brotherhood fostering long-lasting relationships.” He plans to extend his career by committing to Trine University in the fall, where he plans to study Sports Management.  

If you think Noah’s only good at one thing, you are one hundred percent wrong. This guy does it all. “If I’m not doing any school, I’m usually playing sports; golfing, playing catch with a football, baseball, and I recently picked up pickleball.” Staying active is easier for Noah as he enjoys all sports. He likes summer the most as he’s able to do the things he loves. Lake days, going to the beach, and if you see him on the beach, there's a good chance you’ll see him dominating in intense spikeball games.

Noah Emmer, alongside his athletic abilities, is an incredible person with a good heart. “I try to be friendly to everyone, but if you’re my target for senior assassin, you might not like me.” Finding someone who doesn’t like Noah is impossible. His warm personality and silly attitude are contagious. Noah has already faced adversity none of us can imagine, but has shown through his perseverance and good heart that he is capable of overcoming all adversity. We are

excited to see Noah excel at Trine University and beyond, as he has all the tools in the toolbag.
