Description
Before a 16-year-old Noah Baird could score a role in season two of Disney's Mighty Ducks: Game Changers, the Carlsbad actor had to find a hockey rink in a hurry. In this Zevely Zone, I visited the San Diego Ice Arena in Mira Mesa.
Southern California isn't known for ice or hockey, but this is a show that had to go on. "I was excited, and I was nervous," said Noah who is a junior at Sage Creek High School.
Noah loves to surf but strapping on ice skates was a different story. Especially when the casting crew asked Noah to make a skating audition tape.
"I did actually," laughed Noah. He sent the video to the show's makers and got the role! His mother Becky laughs at the thought of suddenly becoming a hockey mom. "Oh, my goodness who'd have thunk it?" said Becky.
