Houston’s Own Isabella Wakeham Shines on Season 17 of NBC’s American Ninja Warrior

American Ninja Warrior Season 17 aired Monday night on NBC, with Cypress native Isabella Wakeham standing out as the sole female contestant to successfully finish the challenging obstacle course and advance to the Semi-Finals.
Isabella's journey stems from her Houston roots, five-time ANW participation, and recent break from Texas A&M and University of Houston studies while balancing wedding plans and barn restoration.
Isabella and her fiancé Sam Folsom, both accomplished ninjas and winners of the ANW Couples Championship, caught fans' attention when Sam popped the question shortly prior to the episode's broadcast, transforming the watch party into a memorable engagement event.
The show airs Mondays at 8/7c on NBC with a $250,000 grand prize, and Houston fans support Isabella as she represents a new generation of female athletes.
Isabella’s advancement highlights her continued pursuit of the ANW title and reflects Houston’s ongoing connection to the competition through her performance and personal milestones.
