Noel was responsible for five touchdowns and 310 yards of total offense in Sacred Heart’s bounce-back win over Nutmeg State rival Central Connecticut. The rookie quarterback rushed for one score and finished the game 17-of-25 passing for 297 yards and four touchdowns. The five touchdowns that Noel was responsible for are the most by a NEC player in a single game this season and the 310 yards of offense stand as the second-highest total in a 2013 conference contest. By the early minutes of the second quarter, Sacred Heart held a 28-6 lead over CCSU and Noel already had three touchdowns to his credit.  His 16-yard touchdown pass to Moses Webb opened the game’s scoring 3:49 into the first quarter. Noel scored on a 1-yard rush with 00:11 remaining in the opening period and added a 30-yard scoring strike to Greg Moore with only 2:11 having gone by in the second.
