THE FINAL PITCH Q&A

Name: Norah Box

Middle School: Friendship Christian School

Club Team: TN Mojo 2011-Brown 14U

Graduation Year: 2030

Position/s: C/MIF

Nickname: I feel like I have a lot of nicknames. My dad starting calling me “Norzie” when I was younger and that has kind of shortened to “Norz” (unless he is getting on me about something) and then it goes back to “Norzie”! Coach (Brandon) Brown also calls me “Norz” mostly. My softball coach at Friendship calls me “Boxy” and most of my basketball coaches have referred to me as just “Box” or “Boxy.” I have also had some call me “Ice Box” in the past. Lots of options out there for the last name “Box.”
