Our most recent Spotlight on Success at West Noble was our theatre production team, Theatre33.
Theatre33 is dealing with some clutter and headaches now, but the short term pains will hopefully be long term gains. Renovations to the stage, storage areas and the theatre hub in general this summer should help Theatre33 bring better show productions in the future.

Xy'Mire Barnes-Bridges was seventh in the finals of the long jump (21-2) and Ethan Yates was eighth in the finals of the discus (146-5).
On the track, Graysen Ruch was active in both the 1600 (8th, 4:33.24) and 3200 (9th, 9:48.26), Jackson Christlieb scored points in the 400 (8th, 50.81) and Nathan Troxel concluded his West Noble track career with a 13th place in the 800 (2:09.96).

Tournament Tuesday:
We have a state finalist! Kayle Jordan returns to Bloomington for the third time as a thrower, having placed third at last night’s Goshen Girls Track Regional. Jordan, who was seeded second coming into the night, sent her best toss 39-10.25 to lock up an automatic qualifier for next week’s state meet. This is Jordan’s second trip to state in shot put, also reaching the finals as a freshman. The four-time sectional champion was also a discus state finalist in 2023 and 2024.
Gimena Aguilar saw her spectacular high school track career come to an end, but finished with a pair of top-10s at Goshen. Aguilar, who is headed to St. Francis to continue her track career, was sixth in the 100 (12.61) and ninth in high jump (5-1). She also helped the 4x100 relay to an 11th place finish (50.88).
Trinity Parson also saw her senior season come to a close, but was active in three events. The 4x800 relay team opened the night with a 10th place finish (10:01.51) and Parson was 13th in the 3,200 (12:22.15) and 15th in the 1,600 (5:36.03).
Girls tennis saw its historic season conclude Tuesday in the semi-finals of the Fort Wayne Girls Tennis Regional. Despite the momentum of its first sectional title since 1991, the Lady Chargers couldn’t completely solve Fort Wayne Dwenger in a 3-2 loss. Ava DeLong and the doubles duo of Darcy Ritchie and Aubrey Hilbish won their courts for West Noble, which close the season with an impressive 17-5 mark.
Softball also had its final chapter written Tuesday, losing 22-1 to Fairfield in the semi-finals of the NorthWood Softball Sectional. West Noble opened the game in stunning fashion, getting a ringing RBI double from Izzy Beers, who missed a homer by just a couple feet. Brooklyn Barden, who walked to open the game, scored West Noble’s lone run.

We pause to remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
West Noble Unified Track completed its season this afternoon as part of the Fort Wayne North Sectional.
The Chargers finished eighth overall as a unit, five spots outside the top three qualifiers for the regional. Homestead, Fort Wayne Carroll and Columbia City were the team qualifiers from the meet.
The events were all done in flights and scores were accumulated from those flights based off times/distances. West Noble had four entrants place in the top two in their respective flights.
Dulce Vega was first in her heat of long jump at 9-4.75 and Mia Vega was also tops in her flight of shot put at 18-9. Grace Zeigler was second in a 100 dash flight at 22.93, and West Noble's 4x100 relay team of Dominic Miller, Riley Barth, Isabella Kimmel and Dulce Vega were also second in their flight at 1:06.53.
Well done this season!

History was made Friday evening in Kendallville!
For the first time in 35 years, and for just the second time ever, West Noble is celebrating a sectional championship in girls tennis! The Lady Chargers knocked off Lakewood Park, 4-1, Thursday evening, then came back to the county seat to face East Noble in the finals.
East Noble quickly went up 1-0 with a two and one win at one doubles, but West Noble got one back with a one and love win from Natalia Riegsecker at one singles. East would retake the lead with a two and one win at three singles, setting up the drama.
At two singles, Ava DeLong navigated a 6-3 win in the first set, and despite needing five spars at deuce in at championship point, DeLong tied up the score with a 6-1 capper. Her adjustments in her approach won't show up in the box score, but forcing East Noble's hand on defense was key to the win.
All eyes then turned two dubs, as Darcy Ritchie and Aubrey Hilbish weathered a 7-4 tiebreaker to take the first set, breaking the spirit of the Knight duo and its supporters. A clinical 6-1 in the second set off a celebration a long time in the making, and gave West Noble its first sectional title in any sport since 2023, when boys soccer held the trophy.
West Noble continues onto the Fort Wayne Carroll Regional, where it will face Fort Wayne Dwenger in one of the semi-finals. Fort Wayne Carroll and Angola meet in the other semi-final. Matches are scheduled to begin around 4:15 p.m. at the Carroll Tennis Complex.
Congrats to our champions, and now let's take it to Dwenger!
West Noble Unified Track and Field are preparing for their sectional tomorrow, a 10 a.m. start at Fort Wayne North Side! Let's go Chargers!
It was a field heavy result for the West Noble boys track team as part of the East Noble Boys Track Sectional.
Xy'Mire Barnes-Bridges claimed the Chargers' only title of the night, sailing 21-8 to win the long jump. Barnes-Bridges was just 1.5" short of tying the program record in his best attempt of the night.
Dustin Richardson claimed a pair of runner-up finishes, beginning his journey back to the IHSAA State Finals in the high jump with a clearance of 6-4 and was also second in the 100-meter dash at 11.16. Jackson Christlieb competed in his first sectional as a freshman, and was impressive in taking third in the 400 (51.46) and Ethan Yates added a third in discus (145-1), the two also making the regional round with Richardson and Barnes-Bridges.
West Noble may get a phone call with its 4x100 relay, which was fourth, as was Graysen Ruch in the mile, in what was a stacked and fast four laps around the track.
Congrats to the Chargers, and good luck to everyone who advanced another week!
