When Noah Gans (Newton, Mass.) was a freshman midfielder at Brandeis University, the Judges advanced to their second straight Division III Final Four.

Now, after taking the Fall 2020 semester off to intern at tech startup eCaring, Gans has delayed his graduation until after the Fall 2021 semester. He wants one more challenge in a Brandeis uniform.
