__________________________
Words from the Coach:
“Cooper is a 6’7, 310lb lineman. He is a four-star lineman ranked 2nd in his class in PA. His size is obvious but, what differentiates him is his physicality, athleticism, and desire to be great and the way he finishes blocks. He is as good as anyone I have seen in my 24 years coaching.”

Let’s Get to Know a Little More about Cooper:

Why do you play football ?
I play football because I enjoy moving people against their will and mowing people down. I also love the fact that it is a team game and a team sport, all 11 have to work together as one unit efficiently in order to succeed, not 10, not 9, but 11. I love this game because it is intense and yet enjoyable. There is nothing better than absolutely dominating your opponents.

Who is your favorite sports star and why ?
I am a big fan of Taylor Lewan, and I also like Juice Scruggs

Do you have a favorite play you remember the most ? Explain:
My favorite play that we had last season was probably 4th and short on the goal-line, there is just something about that play that makes it the best.

What was last year’s season like for you ?
It was definitely an enjoyable season for me, my coaches, my teammates and our fans. We have the best coaching staff in Pennsylvania led by Bo Orlando. I would not want to play for any other head coach besides him. The season was great, definitely didn’t want it to end in the 3rd overtime on the 3 yard line. I had great teammates around me everyone on my team came into every practice hungry and ready to compete. That is what made the season so enjoyable for me.

Who is the best player you have ever lined up against ?
Gus Anderson, there have been many great players that I have played against. I don’t think there was one team that my team had played that didn’t have a stud on their team. I would say though the hardest opponent I have ever seen and competed against was QB Beau Pribula, he is twitchy and super quick as a Freshman. I was excited to play against a player like him.

What stadium, (HS/College/Pro) would you love to visit for a game ?
My home field will be the best field but Beaver Stadium is by far the best of the best. NOTHING CAMPARES TO THAT ATMOSPHERE IN HAPPY VALLEY. Everyone should experience Beaver Stadium at some point.

What is your favorite Pro Sports team(any sport) ? Explain:
LA RAMS, I love their head coach and my dads a Rams fan.

What game, yours, college or pro, was your favorite game you watched and why ?
When Penn State beat Ohio State at home in the whiteout, I was out of my seat.

What sports movie could you watch every day if you had to pick one, and why ?
Greater, Brandon’s journey was a great one to watch and he was a super determined player.

Name one thing you’d love to do in football that may never happen ?
Score a touchdown or throw for a touchdown.

When you aren’t playing, practicing, or training for sports, what is your go to activity, and why ?
Golf, Basketball or Baseball, playing other sports helps with football.

Which one, Sheetz, Wawa, or Rutters ? Explain:
Sheetz, mac and cheese bites at any time of the day.

What is your favorite vacation destination ?
The south with my family.

NBA, NHL, MLB, NCAAF, NFL, Which league is the best and why ?
NFL football is the best sport.

Location you think would be the best place to live(ie: island, mountains, city, etc) ? Explain why:
