He plans to play football and basketball for the Wolves.
Nicholas Armstrong arrived just in time.
A recent newcomer to the Coupeville School district — he wrapped up the last month of his middle school days at CMS — he’s eager to provide depth to the high school football program.
Armstrong makes the jump to freshman status at CHS this fall, and has already been on the field, putting in time with the Wolves during spring practice.
A big fan of the TV show The Office, he has his heart set on one day winning a college football or basketball scholarship.
He’ll be adding hoops to his resume in Coupeville, as it’s one of the few 1A schools in the state not to offer wrestling, which he competed in prior to arriving in Cow Town.
Armstrong is an equal opportunity athlete, one who competes hard in any sport he plays, but football will always be his go-to favorite.
“(I like it) because it’s a team and contact sport,” he said.
Whether on the field, the mat, or the hardwood, Armstrong enjoys “being able to do any sport and being good at it.”
When looking at his strengths and areas he’d like to improve on, he hails “being able to run for a long time” as one of his best traits.
Armstrong would like to “build a little more muscle,” and, with the support of his parents and friends, plans to continue to chase his sports dreams.
And for a Wolf football program in need of every player it can find, consider his arrival a blessing.
