Noah Stafford '19 Recruiting Profile

My Senior year has been one filled with hard work, both in the class room and in the training room.  My goal was to graduate with a 3.0 GPA. I missed this goal by a mere .02 points. Looking back, I know there where areas I could have done more and I take this in as a learning experience of how to better management my time. My athletic year saw many ups and a few downs. I was voted as 1st team All-State Defense in Tennessee Division A (first in school history), but our team was eliminated in the second round of State playoffs. I had rather made it to the state finals than receive the individual recognition. In basketball, I was troubled with knee pain and was limited in playing time. I learned quickly how to support and encourage my team, when not on the court, from the sidelines. In baseball, I quickly earned my starting spot on 1st base. My play on 1st continued to improve as I only had 1 error out of 208 total chances. My bat was hot and cold all season long, as I continue to redefine my swing from a torn hip labral the season before. I continue to work on improving each and every day and I am 100% dedicated to learning and working hard on all things baseball. That is one thing I can promise anyone I play for, you will not have a harder working individual than me and a team player. I have been both the dedicated side line supporter and the leader in all three sports I have played. Come see me or follow me, Spring 2020 as I begin my collegiate career at Dyersburg State Community College playing baseball. Number #21. And hopefully at an SEC team near you in the future!
