Timberwolves announce player commitment

PRINCE GEORGE — The UNBC Timberwolves Men’s Soccer program has added defender and Edmonton-product Nick Couchman for the 2026 season.

Couchman checks in a 5’10,” and primarily plays at fullback and centre back. He joins the Timberwolves after competing with Next Step Soccer and building a reputation as a reliable, hardworking defender with strong leadership qualities.

“Nick is a really talented and aggressive central defender with an incredible mindset, always playing on the front foot,” said Steve Simonson. “He is very confident in his play but has a real interest in becoming better at every opportunity. We’re super excited to have him join us and can’t wait to see the player I know he will become at the U SPORTS level.”

Couchman has both Canadian and Guyanese citizenship and says the welcoming environment during his visit to campus played a major role in his decision.
