Noviello struck out five of the six hitters he faced to cap off the Division 1A Massachusetts Super 8 Championship, the program's first since 1986. He was named Franklin High's Pitcher of the Year twice and also earned the school's Career Athlete Award. Another highlight of his career came against the GBG Northeast Hawks as he threw a no-hitter, the first for Franklin High in a decade. Also a two-sport athlete, Noviello set the school record for passing yards as a quarterback.
