OCALA, FL (352today.com) – Hometown Ocala athlete Nacssa Garemore will be on “American Ninja Warrior” again for the first stage of the popular prime-time game show’s final rounds.

Last Monday, the 18-year-old Garemore participated in the show’s new “Triple Header” competition, in which three contestants navigate an obstacle course head-to-head. The new twist to the show’s formula pitted Garemore against his friend and former training partner, David Bergstrom-Wright.

Garemore, who was born an orphan in West Africa before being adopted and brought to America at the age of five, is a familiar face to fans of “American Ninja Warrior”–this is his fourth season on the show, after appearing in two seasons of the youth-oriented “American Ninja Warrior Junior.” He made it to the final round last season, only to be eliminated.

The next episode of “American Ninja Warrior” airs tonight, Monday, July 20, 2026, at 9 p.m. Eastern. The next few episodes will focus on another region of the U.S., before Garemore and others return for the first round of the finals.
