Early life

Noah Pele Tupua Sewell hails from the village of Malaeimi in American Samoa. He began playing American football alongside his three brothers as a child after his father Gabriel became a coach of the sport.

During his high school career he had 224 tackles, 8.5 sacks and five interceptions as a linebacker and 2,316 yards and 40 touchdowns as a running back. He was named the Utah Valley Football Player of the Year as a senior in 2019. A five-star recruit, Sewell committed to the University of Oregon to play college football. His brother, Penei, was drafted by the Detroit Lions seventh overall in the 2021 NFL draft. Another brother, Nephi, currently plays for the New Orleans Saints. A third brother, Gabriel, also plays college football.
