Claire Noble Signs To Play Basketball At Clarion University

Congratulations to Claire Noble who signed her National Letter of Intent Wednesday to continue her academic and basketball career at Clarion University.

Claire Noble, a senior standout athlete at Lincoln High School in Ellwood City, signed a National Letter of Intent on Wednesday to continue her academic and athletic career at Clarion University.

A High Honor student who was recently selected as the Lion’s Club Student of the Month, Noble, is a 6’0” guard/forward who earned a scholarship to play Women’s Basketball for the Golden Eagles. Having proven herself on the national AAU circuit this past spring/summer with SLAAM’s Select 40 2024 team, Noble received several Division II scholarship offers for both Volleyball and Basketball, but ultimately chose Clarion.

“Claire is a terrific basketball player who has flown under the radar. She has the ability to stretch the floor and can score at all three levels. She is also one of our best playmakers, consistently performing at a high level,” said her high school coach and mother, Dena Noble. “She is a true leader on and off the court. Her hard work, dedication, and commitment are unparalleled. We are all so proud of her and so grateful for the opportunities that God has blessed her with.”

Noble is set to join the Clarion Golden Eagles Women’s Basketball Team that finished their 2022-23 regular season 5-22 overall, and will open their 2023-24 regular season on Friday against Notre Dame College. The Golden Eagles are led by junior Sierra Bermudez who averaged a team-high 13.3 PPG last year as a sophomore.
