Mike Vukovcan Good luck Vikings from the Wayne N. Tatalovich family
Slowly but surely the national interest in Hopewell QB James Armstrong is not surprisingly picking up.
Today, the talented sophomore received his latest Power 4 offer and it’s a big one. Armstrong learned today that he’s been offered a scholarship from Florida State.
Armstrong now holds Power 4 offers from Pitt, Penn State, Duke, West Virginia and North Carolina.
“I love the school,” Armstrong tells Vikings Sports Now. “I think Florida would be a great place to live so it made my happy to receive an offer from such a prestigious school such as Florida State. I’m hoping to get there for a visit.”
Speaking of visits, this past weekend, Armstrong made an official visit on Saturday to take in a West Virginia spring practice. In the near future, he’s expected to drive down to watch a Pitt Panther spring practice, once they return from spring break.
The 6’3″, 225-pound left-hander finished his sophomore season passing for 2,350 yards, rushing for 760 yards, scoring a combined 37 touchdowns, while throwing only 3 interceptions.
All of that led his team to finish 7-4 and to qualify and win a WPIAL playoff game for the first time in a decade.
