NOAH MAHONEY

I've spent years behind the plate and even more years studying what separates good catchers from great ones. My background spans competitive travel baseball, high school varsity, college baseball, independent ball, and years of dedicated catching instruction — giving me a deep, technical understanding of every aspect of the position. In high school, I was a part of National and Texas State Championship teams. I started college at Abilene Christian and finished at Letourneau with a stop at Odessa College in between. At LETU, I was a 4-year starter and helped lead the Yellowjackets from last in conference in 2017 to a 2nd place finish in 2019. After Covid cancelled my senior season, I played a single season for the Tucson Saguaros, where we went 26-4 and won the 2020 Pecos League Championship.

I started Lonestar Catching because I saw too many talented athletes held back by poor fundamentals and "old-school", cookie cutter coaching. Most teams practice catching as an afterthought. I treat it as the most important position on the field, because it is the most important.

My coaching philosophy is simple: master the fundamentals, develop your baseball IQ, and build the confidence to perform when it matters most. Every lesson is customized to where you are right now and where you want to go.

WHAT PLAYERS & PARENTS SAY

"

"Working with Noah during my son's junior year of high school made an immediate impact on both his catching and hitting. Noah's experience is evident from the very first session, and his approach stands out in a baseball world crowded with cookie‑cutter instruction and money‑driven programs. Instead of forcing every player into the same mold, Noah uses his certification in motor preferences to identify each athlete's natural movement patterns and body positions. For my son, this changed everything — his mobility behind the plate improved dramatically, and his swing became more efficient and powerful. The results speak for themselves: heading into his senior year, he posted a .576 AVG / 1.457 OPS / .831 SLG during the summer. But Noah's instruction goes far beyond mechanics. He teaches the game. Catching is the most demanding and influential position on the field, and Noah ensures his players understand every layer of it — game management, leadership, decision‑making, and the responsibilities that aren't obvious to most people watching from the stands. Noah teaches because he loves the game, he loves developing young men, and he knows this is his calling. He is a man of Christ who genuinely cares about the players he works with. If you're serious about becoming the best catcher you can be, get signed up with Noah soon — you won't find another instructor who combines elite knowledge with this level of care."

"Throughout High school I had virtually 0 varsity at bats. Because of this I had very limited college interest, offers, and respect in the baseball world. I started working with Mahoney the summer of my junior year and I've never looked back. A coach who builds a genuine connection and commitment to growth and development to the athletes who are serious about elevating their game, and overall character as men in Christ on and off the field. Since working with Mahoney and continuing to put effort into the weight room I've gone from barely getting playing time in High school to playing in 85 collegiate games and accumulating 8 HR with 62 RBI in my first 2 years of college and now blessed with the opportunity to continue my collegiate career playing Division II baseball at Southern Arkansas University."

"Needed a coach to help refine my son's mechanics behind the dish. Someone who would work with his natural athleticism and not try to apply a "one size fits all" approach. Coach Noah has been just what we were looking for. Pushes him at the right times, pulls back when needed. Super detailed and getting results. My kid looks forward to every single session. Excited to see how all of the work translates into his 12U Majors season."
