S̄wạs̄dī, My name is Noah William Tapp. People refer to me as Noah. I have an obsession with contact sports so I decided to play tennis for Henry Clay. When that gets too rough rough I reside to the non KHSAA approved Pingpong Club.
My geek thing is University of Kentucky Sports. I try to attend every game I can and thanks to my family I have had the oppotunity to do some cool things with the UK sports team. For example, this year I flew to Baton Rouge, Louisiana to watch the wildcat basketball team take on the tigers. This was no ordinary trip. I went on the offical UK Team plane. Yes you heard me... the players' plane. Just a few rows up was the beautiful Devin Booker and just a few rows behind was Karl Towns, the future #1 pick in the 2015 NBA Draft. But how could I forget the artistic WCS, the midget Tyler Ulis, and the clutch Harrisons ( just Aaron actually. AKA a-aron to the substitute teacher). Just interacting with these future professional athletes was a treat. I ate all the same meals , stayed in the same police guarded hotel floor, and even went to the same shoot around before the game. Being apart of that undefeated regular season is something that I will never forget. In the past UK trips have brought me to Indianapolis, Charelston, Nashville, Rocky Top, Gainesville, New York,and New Orleans( 2012 National Championship). Hopefully the renovated football stadium is complete by the time next weekend when UK will show the Rajun Cajuns what a real SEC football team is.
Enough about UK Sports.I actually am a competitive tennis player. I've played varsity since 6th grade so hopefully after 7 years of playing high school tennis I will either be a team state champion or an individual  state champion. I also want to play college tennis . I started playing when I was around 4 so it has been "my" sport ever since then. From an academic standpoint, I try to achieve As and pass AP tests. This is the year I will take the PSAT, ACT, and SAT so I hope to score well on those so I can get into a decent college. My dream college would be somewhere relatively near home but far enough away to where my mom could not get there in one night. If I could have a power it would be the ability to go back in time. Not that I have any regrets but there are always times when better decisions could of been made.
