WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- Winston-Salem State added some much-needed help on the frontline with the addition of 6-7, 245-pound forward Keith Armstrong.Armstrong, 22, is a transfer from East Carolina where he played in just 11 games totaling 36 minutes last season. He is expected to graduate from East Carolina this month, and will have one season of eligibility remaining.
“I’m really looking forward to this opportunity,” Armstrong said Monday. “I know all about the CIAA because my grandmother (Alyce Johns) went to St. Paul’s. So I know how competitive the conference is.”
Armstrong, who will earn his degree in communications, decided to use his final season at a Division II school.
One advantage Armstrong had in the recruiting process was his roommate at East Carolina was Michel-Ofik Nzege, a former WSSU player. Nzege played one season for WSSU before transferring to East Carolina after the 2012-13 season.
