Manchester Wolves News Release
MANCHESTER, NH (December 06, 2004) A favorite player for fans of the Manchester Wolves is the first player signed by the team for the 2005 season. Mike Wells, a product of the University of New Hampshire (UNH), and Salem (NH) High School signed a contract that will put him in a Wolves jersey once again.
"I can't wait to hit the field again! Playing for the Wolves has been one of the best experiences of my life," said Wells, who played in 14 of the Wolves 16 games in the 2004 season.
Ironman football is no stranger to Wells who has been playing on both sides of the ball since his high school days in Salem, NH. He is a solid lineman on both offense and defense for the Wolves, and even supplemented that by playing some fullback during the 2004 season.
"Mike is a great addition to our team, a local athlete with outstanding talent," stated Wolves General Manager Angelo Mazzella, adding that Wells, " is willing to go above and beyond for the team on and off the field."
Wells boasts quite the resume. He was an offensive line coach at Saint Anselm's College (NH) for 2 seasons. While playing football at UNH, Wells started his final 33 games for the Wildcats and had 166 total tackles, 26 of those tackles for a loss of yards. During his high school career in Salem (NH) he twice earned all-state honors, and was selected to the New Hampshire Shrine All-Star Team. Wells has a deep knowledge of the game, great athleticism, and drive that will help propel the Wolves to great success in the 2005 season.
