Matthew Argo, Staff Writer
Sixteen-year-old Matthew Argo was raised in Calabash and has lived there his whole life. Argo has been an outfielder in baseball since he was four years old and has been on the school team since his freshman year.
“Starting baseball workouts in September is really challenging for me because of the amount of effort I have to put into baseball,” said Argo. “I think the grind is worth it when spring comes though.”
Working at Dunkin Donuts on the weekends and full time during the summer gets Argo almost no free time. However, during his free time he plays video games like Fortnite, 2K, and Rocket League.
Without him knowing what he wants to do for his future, he still wants to attend college at Chapel Hill because that’s where his older sister goes.
“I have always liked math growing up,” said Argo. “It would be cool to be a math teacher who coaches one of the sports after school.”
Entering his second semester in journalism, Argo is ready to improve from where he stood last semester. Argo’s interest in the West Wind sparked because of his older sister who took the class when she was in high school. He is looking forward to being a sports anchor and making social media posts for the class.
