CHS Viks Remember Reggie Nault

Reggie Nault’s passion on the baseball field caught not only the attention of his coaches and teammates, but that of college and pro scouts. The 16-year-old Coeur d’Alene High student presumably drowned in Lake Coeur d’Alene Tuesday night after he either fell or jumped from a moving 23-foot boat near Arrow Point south of Coeur d’Alene, according to the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office. About 300 people attended a vigil to pay respects to Nault on Wednesday night at Coeur d’Alene High’s Ted Page Field - the place Nault shined as a catcher and through his personality. “We can learn from Reggie,” said a teary-eyed Colin Richards, a teammate of Nault’s at Coeur d’Alene High and this summer on the Spokane Dodgers 18U club team. “He was small, but he believed he could (succeed). Keep talking about Reggie. Keep him alive. I loved that kid and always will.” Coeur d’Alene High Principal Warren Olson called Nault “a true Viking”/Brian Walker & Jason Elliott, Coeur d’Alene Press.
