How has Noah Luskus used a growth mindset to become a nationally ranked collegiate Spikeball athlete?
Many high school athletes retire from competitive sport before entering college simply because they are forced to do so.
However, my guest on Episode 22, Noah Luskus chose to forego swimming competitively in college. Instead, Noah enrolled at his dream school, the University of Georgia as a student. As a freshman, Noah found Spikeball, which started as a hobby and turned into a competitive passion after much hard work and dedication.
Noah discusses his choice not to swim competitively in college and how he has found purpose in pursuing a new athletic endeavor. His efforts have led to a flourishing Spikeball Club at UGA that has won multiple national championships.
My suggestion to young athletes is to know that there are ways to remain competitive in college beyond traditional intercollegiate athletics. Trying a new sport or skill in college can create an athletic opportunity that you may have never imagined.
I want to thank Noah for his kind generosity and the wisdom he shared with The Freshman Foundation Community.
