Cooper Palmieri ‘20 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

I do not come from the best background be any means but certainly not the worst. My coach always compared our team to the neighboring county as if we were inferior because we had nothing to fight for like they did. The wrestlers in that county came from broken homes and poor families who struggled to keep the lights on. Although that is not particularly the case with me, I still have something to fight for. I have myself, future wife, future kids, parents, former teachers, and Northwest athletes to provide for and fight for. I have made it my main goal to go to college and wrestle in college because my parents do not have quite enough money to afford it. I am extremely hard working and willing. I have committed to the idea of winning a state championship and eventually a national championship.
