Cooper Smith '17 Recruiting Profile

My college goal is to attend a university with an exceptional sports program along with the academic excellence in the field I chose to study. What makes me a good candidate is that I will put 100% effort into everything I do.

I am different from all the other recruits because I was adopted at a young age from the Michigan foster care system and have had many challenges to overcome. My work ethic is my strongest character trait. In athletics I continue to work until there is no more work to be done. I attend a private Catholic high school with high expectations and I strive to get all A's and will do everything and anything to accomplish that including tutoring every Sunday afternoon and pre course prep during the summer. I will do anything and every thing possible to make anyone or anybody who believes in me proud. 

On my own, I research the best meal plans and workouts and keep to a strict schedule to prepare for the upcoming sport.  I participate in football, wrestling and Lacrosse to stay fit throughout the year.  During the summer I attend all 7 on 7's with my team and camps at other schools along with a weight lifting and a fitness program.  My goal is to always show up on the first day of practice in better shape than the year before and I do.
