Wilbraham & Monson Academy's Nate Towle '18 might strap on his Titans' football helmet one more time.
Nate, a four-year player for WMA, has been invited to represent the United States as a member of the American Football Worldwide Elite High School Senior Select Team in a game overseas in the spring of 2018.
"I was surprised," said Nate, who received his invitation Nov. 29. "I didn't know there was a team like that. At first I thought it might be a camp thing or a gimmick, but then I looked into it and it was a legit thing. I was pretty excited to be given the opportunity to do something like that.
"I would love to do it. Who wouldn't want to do that?"
The USA-AFW offers two trips to Europe, with a game in Ireland March 31 and a contest in Italy April 7.
Nate, a 6-foot guard and linebacker, served as captain for the Titans. He received the team's MVP Award.
"Nate was a great senior leader for us," WMA Coach Jeff Vartabedian said. "It was a challenging year in a lot of ways but he, along with the other seniors, did a good job keeping things positive and keeping the guys working hard and focused. He's one of our four-year guys. He always gives an unbelievable effort, he's a team guy and we're going to miss him a lot."
