“Practice is hard; we do drills, sprint, and condition like no other team.”
What is the team dynamic like?
“The team dynamic is great. We have young freshman who want to learn, and older people who want to teach them. We also try and keep negativity out of the room.”

I want to thank Noah for doing this interview with me. I wish him and the rest of the Apex team the best as they go throughout the rest of the season. Also, I wish him the best as he continues to wrestle into the future.
