Cooper Pettit '17 Recruiting Profile

After spending the past four and a half years commuting more than an hour each way from home to the Hopkins School for the opportunity to receive an excellent academic education, it's my intention to use my Math/Science strengths to help me get into a great College so I can pursue my education in either Engineering or Criminal Justice. Football is the vehicle I plan to use to help me achieve this goal.

I have played multiple sports since I was young, football, wrestling, baseball, hockey, tennis and crew. While I've enjoyed the challenges of each, football is something I am now preparing very seriously for this coming fall and beyond. I have tried to help our program by playing quarterback when needed, H-back, inside and outside linebacker, defensive end and as a down lineman in certain situations. I play in all situations, offense, defense and special teams, where ever I'm needed to help.

I will be a two sport captain next year as a senior, football and wrestling. I placed baseball on hold this year to prepare for next year's football and wrestling seasons. I am improving my work ethic to achieve my football goal to become a college starter.
