Tage "Baby Blue" Herrington is a student from Anthem, Arizona. He comes from a large family, being the oldest of twelve other siblings. He is also a superfan of ANW, being a fan of the sport since the first season.

American Ninja Warrior 12
Tage first competed in ANW 12 as part of Adam Rayl's team. On the course, Tage put a great debut, clearing the course with ease. He finished the course with the 5th fastest time.

In the semifinals, Tage competed in the second episode. He had a good run going, but got reckless on the fifth obstacle, Slingshot, and failed there, ending his rookie season. Before the pandemic started, Tage was originally supposed to compete in Los Angeles this season.

American Ninja Warrior 13
He returned to compete in American Ninja Warrior 13. His run was digested, but he competed in the fourth episode of qualifying and finished the qualifier once again, placing 9th. Unlike last season, he did attempt to scale the Mega Wall, though he did not successfully do so. He later competed in the third semifinal episode. His run there was also digested, but he was one of many who failed the eighth obstacle Padlock. His pace to the obstacle placed him 11th overall so he qualified for the national Finals. In Vegas, his stage 1 run was completely cut, but he cleared the stage with 15 seconds left. His stage 2 run was digested, but he failed on the fifth obstacle Epic Air Surfer, ending his sophomore season.
