Noah Quarless is Western Carolina’s clutch-catching spark plug
In the 2026 season, Noah Quarless has been one of Western Carolina’s most reliable bats and a true big-moment catcher, earning SoCon Player of the Week honors after opening with a walk-off homer and a walk-off double. He entered 2026 as the returning starter behind the plate, and the Catamounts’ own coverage says he was expected to anchor the battery. The separator here is his run-producing knack under pressure, plus enough defensive credibility to handle the everyday catching load. If you want a backstop who brings edge, pop, and late-inning heartbeat energy, Quarless absolutely fits.
