Antonio was a special young man. He was an All-American and an outstanding player, but he was an even better person. He was such a positive influence on his teammates. He always had a great big smile and was a joy to coach.

Investigators have yet to determine a motive.

ABC 13's Courtney Fischer shared photos of the crime scene:

In his senior year with the Aggies in 1994, Armstrong was an Associated Press All-American. The San Francisco 49ers selected him in the sixth round of the 1995 NFL draft, and he went on to play four games for the Miami Dolphins in '95.
