Class of 2028 WR Ben Nicholson out of Cobequid Educational Centre in Truro, Nova Scotia, is one of those players you need to watch a little closer to fully understand. The stat line from this past season looks clean and efficient with seven targets, seven receptions, 73 yards, and a touchdown for the CEC Cougars, but it only tells part of the story.
