Noah Schowengerdt is your prototypical 13-year-old.

His passion — sports, sports and sports.

His favorite?

“Whatever’s in season,” he said. “I like them all.”

He’s done quite well at pretty much all of them, too.

Schowengerdt was a standout on the football field, wrestling mat and on the track last year at Iola Middle School.

Summer sports took over as the calendar hit June and July.

And with his baseball season having concluded earlier this month, it gives Schowengerdt a few precious days to focus on perhaps his favorite sport of them all — swimming

Schowengerdt will take to the pool for the final time of the 2021 Iola Seahorses season today at the Southeast Kansas League Swim Meet in Chanute, where he hopes to add to his extensive collection of medals and trophies.
