College career
Nola was drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays in the 22nd round of the 2011 Major League Baseball draft out of Catholic High School in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. However, he decided not to sign and instead attended Louisiana State University (LSU) to play college baseball for the LSU Tigers.
As a freshman in 2012, Nola pitched to a 7–4 win–loss record with a 3.61 earned run average (ERA) and 89 strikeouts in 89 2⁄3 innings pitched. That summer, Nola was selected by USA Baseball to play for the United States collegiate national team. During his sophomore year, on April 22, 2013, Nola shared the Southeastern Conference (SEC) Pitcher of the Week Award with Bobby Wahl of the Ole Miss Rebels. For his sophomore season, Nola went 12–1 with a 1.57 ERA and 122 strikeouts in 126 innings pitched, he was named an All-American by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA), Baseball America and Collegiate Baseball. He was also the SEC Pitcher of the Year. As a junior in 2013, he pitched to an 11–1 record with a 1.47 ERA and 134 strikeouts. He again won the SEC Pitcher of the Year Award, as well as the National Pitcher of the Year Award. He was also a finalist for the Golden Spikes Award and Dick Howser Trophy.
Professional career
Nola was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in the first round, seventh overall, in the 2014 Major League Baseball draft. He signed with the Phillies on June 10. After seven predominantly successful appearances for the Clearwater Threshers of the Class A-Advanced Florida State League, Nola earned a promotion to the Reading Fightin Phils of the Double-A Eastern League, on August 2, 2014. Former Phillies manager Ryne Sandberg opined, "He's just showed a good power arm, a real good fastball. It's a quick move for him, but he was ready for it."
Nola began the 2015 season with Reading and after making 12 starts, was promoted to the Lehigh Valley IronPigs of the Class AAA International League. He made his major league debut for the Phillies on July 21, 2015. He lost, 1–0, in his debut when he surrendered the game's only run to the opposing pitcher, Tampa Bay Rays' Nathan Karns. He earned his first victory less than a week later, pitching 7 2⁄3 innings in the Phillies' 11–5 victory over the Chicago Cubs on July 26. Nola contributed to his own cause with an RBI single in the same game.
Personal
His brother, Austin, also played at LSU and currently also plays professional baseball.
