Noel Clark- Owner / Designer
I grew up in a small rural town in Washington State, where community and support were huge pillars of daily life. Baseball, in particular, held a special place in our hearts and was well-known throughout the area. In a graduating class of around 120 people, I found myself immersed in a tight-knit community where everyone knew each other's names and dreams.
It was within this close-knit environment that my passion for sports, especially baseball, flourished. From my early days playing T-Ball to my high school years, the spirit of the game resonated deeply with me. And it was this upbringing, rooted in the values of camaraderie and dedication, that propelled me forward in pursuing my athletic ambitions.
As I traveled through the highs and lows of my baseball journey, from earning a scholarship to the University of Portland to enduring Tommy John surgery and transferring to Oregon State University, I held onto the lessons and support from my hometown community. Even as my path diverged from the traditional route to the big leagues, I remained thankful for the constant encouragement and camaraderie that shaped my journey.
I remained an avid spectator, keeping tabs on both former teammates and worthy opponents, finding joy in their successes on the field. And through my brand, "Shirts On Deck," I found a way to stay involved in baseball, channeling my artistic skills into creating awesome retro-inspired designs that celebrate the sport I love.
