His favorite role was being Mortimer Brewster in “Arsenic and Old Lace,” during his freshman year.

“Everybody had fun,” Bell said of the play. “I had a good role.”

“It’s fun,” he explained. “You get to throw yourself in the air.”

His personal best is 9-0 in the pole vault. A goal is to qualify for the state meet as a senior.

During football season, he plays strong safety and wide receiver for the Wolves. A highlight of the year was intercepting a pass in Colstrip.

Bell’s favorite teacher is Jacob Boysun. “He’s funny,” Bell said.

After high school, Bell’s plans is to attend Montana State University in Billings and steady to become a radiology technician. He became interested in the field during tests on his injured ankle. “I was fascinated by how it works,” Bell said.
