<\/figure><\/div>\n\nNoah is a fifth-year dodgeball veteran, making him one of the oldest players on the team. People know Noah for his longshot throws and his ability to go behind the other team at the start of a point. There is no doubt that he will be a strong candidate for ‘Practice MVP’.<\/p>\n
Tell me a little bit about yourself.<\/p>\n
- \n
- This is my fifth year and final semester at UWP. I grew up in Pulaski, WI just outside of Green Bay, and I\u2019ve been in dodgeball since my freshman year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Out of all the dodgeball memories you’ve made, which one is your favorite?<\/p>\n
- \n
- The friends and people I\u2019ve met through dodgeball have been the most fun and important people I have met throughout my time at UWP and definitely helped shape my experience here in college.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Are there any specific tournaments that stick out to you?<\/p>\n
- \n
- I really enjoyed last year at Nationals hearing other teams talk about how UWP isn\u2019t just a pushover team anymore. The team really put some good effort into improving and it was great to hear other teams taking notice.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
What are your plans after graduating come December?<\/p>\n
- \n
- Immediately after graduating, the plan is to enjoy my time off before starting my Process Engineering career at Georgia Pacific in Green Bay, WI.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Any last words of wisdom?<\/p>\n
- \n
- Life\u2019s too short to have a bad attitude with anything. Every day is a gift and you should treat it as such. Have fun while you can.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n

<\/figure><\/div>\n\nUnlike Noah, Andrew just started playing dodgeball this September, but has really grown a lot since then. Andrew has shown dedication to the club by coming to practices regularly and is always eager to learn. One thing that he has improved on lately is his team throws. Besides dodgeball, Andrew is a Forensic Investigation Major and grew up in Oswego, IL.<\/p>\n
How has your perspective on the sport changed since you’ve been to tournaments?<\/p>\n
- \n
- I always thought of dodgeball as an individual sport even though you have a team because I could figure out how someone could support their teammates. Since joining the team an going to tournaments I’ve understood a lot about teamwork and the competitive nature of the game.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
What’s your favorite part of practices?<\/p>\n
- \n
- My favorite part of practice is probably the “6v6” format games. The fast pace and smaller court keep the game going strong without the constant running back and forth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Were you a Disney or a Nickelodeon kid?<\/p>\n
- \n
- I was a Disney kid, my mom did not like SpongeBob so Nickelodeon was rarely on.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
If you were reborn as a squirrel, which kind of squirrel would it be?<\/p>\n
- \n
- I’d be reborn as a red giant flying squirrel, because they’re giant and “fly”. There isn’t much else to be said.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
