Cooper is a sophomore here at Morningside that plans on getting his degree in mass communications. He’s originally from Pocahontas, Iowa which is approximately an hour an a half away from Morningside. Cooper currently does track and field at Morningside. His favorite events that he participates in is 110 high hurdles and high jump. All throughout his life, Cooper has loved anything to do with jumping and eventually found high jumping and hurdling after his friends convinced him to join the track team. He instantly fell in love with the sport due to the amazing atmosphere and the fact that a bunch of his friends were on the team already. Don’t let the whole track label fool you though, as Cooper is the last person you will see running for fun due to the fact that he absolutely dreads running.
Hobbies
While Cooper isn’t doing track he likes to spend his time watching basketball. His favorite team is the Lakers because of Kobe Bryant, can you blame him? When basketball isn’t in season though, he spends his time watching the Colts. He first started watching the Colts because of Peyton Manning but soon grew a love for the team after he left. Some of his other hobbies that he likes to do outdoors is golfing and fishing. Something that he wants to get into is tattoos because he really likes artwork especially Greek mythology type pieces. He also loves collecting Nike brand shoes but his favorite shoe would have to be the Kobe 11 Achilles Heel.
Cooper is very invested in movies and if he had to pick some of his favorites they would have to be Interstellar, The Great Gatsby, and Shutter Island. Aside from movies, he enjoys playing Madden and 2K with the guys.
Cooper says that he lives by this saying ever since he thought of it in his 6th grade art class “Life’s too short to color inside the lines”. Surprisingly however, he’s actually terrible at art and maybe that’s why he doesn’t like staying inside the lines because maybe… he just can’t. Overall, Cooper is a very outgoing person and loves to experience new things on a day-to-day basis.
