WVSports – 2025 athlete King gets better look at West Virginia on junior day visit
Fairfield (Oh.) 2025 athlete Noah King had visited West Virginia before, but his most recent trip for the January junior day stop was eye-opening.
King, 6-foot-2, 185-pounds, was especially impressed with the fact that the coaching staff was so personable and made him feel at home while he was on campus.
“Every coach there knew who I was, and it was a very warm welcome,” he said.
King also was impressed with all of the things available to players such as the Fifth Quarter Program and the academic side to prepare athletes for life outside of football.
The Buckeye State native has developed a strong relationship with several of the coaches on staff including secondary coach ShaDon Brown, defensive coordinator Jordan Lesley and wide receivers coach Bilal Marshall. And that is something that has kept the Mountaineers at the forefront of his recruitment.
“They’re already planning to come see me again and they told me that they like me a lot and I’m a special dynamic player,” he said.
King has the ability to play either side of the ball at the college level and West Virginia has let it be known that they are exploring all options when it comes to where he would end up.
“There’s so many places I could play on the field. I’m big, strong, fast and can move,” he said. “They’ve mentioned corner, safety and wide receiver and like my versatility for sure.”
King will definitely return to West Virginia for another visit in the spring and also is looking at trips to a few other places such as Michigan State, Indiana, Maryland and Syracuse to name a few.

Morrisey signs Baylea’s Law, increasing criminal penalties in W.Va. for DUI causing death
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WCHS) — West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey officially signed House Bill 4712 into law on Friday.
The bill, better known as Baylea’s Law, increases criminal penalties against those who are convicted of driving under the influence resulting in death. The bill is named after Baylea Bower, a 24-year-old woman from Boone County who was killed in a car crash on Easter in 2025 caused by a drunk driver.
The bill passed the House in February, with several of Bower’s family and friends gathered at the West Virginia Capitol in support of the bill.
“Obviously we’re going to be heartbroken,” Bower’s friend India Henderson said. “We have the lifetime sentence of not having Baylea. But if this does help save a life in the future and cause someone to not want to go out and cause this tragedy, then that is a win.”
In accordance with the passage of the bill, Baylea’s Law will take effect on June 12.
“West Virginia will no longer allow those who drive while impaired to escape the full weight of justice,” Morrisey said Friday in a press release. “Baylea’s Law gives our legal system the teeth to demand absolute accountability for the most heartbreaking crimes. Today, our laws stand firmly on the side of victims and their families.”
Specifically, Baylea’s Law introduces the offense of aggravated DUI resulting in death, which will carry the following mandatory sentences, according to a release from Morrisey’s office:
- Five to 30 years in prison
- Fine of $2,000 to $10,000
- Lifetime revocation of the offender’s driver’s license
