Armas was named an NCAA Division II First Team All-American his senior year.
Armas played for Puerto Rico in the 1993 Caribbean Cup.
The competition was not then recognized by FIFA and so his five matches were classed as friendlies.

In 1995, the Rough Riders defeated the Minnesota Thunder in the USISL's Pro League Championship.

He went on to earn 66 caps.
He did not break into the squad until soon after the 1998 FIFA World Cup, and his ACL injury came just before the 2002 FIFA World Cup, so he was never able to play for the United States in the World Cup.
