VYPE HYPE: John Cooper's Man in the Middle

The John Cooper Dragons made history last season, winning their school’s first-ever Southwest Preparatory Conference football title.

Back in the huddle for coach Erik Dehaven is linebacker Alex Rovirosa, who recently picked up an offer from the Grinnell Pioneers.

The 5-foot-10, 200-pound defender combines tremendous strength and physicality. Rovirosa will anchor the defense at the linebacker level.

VYPE spent the afternoon with the John Cooper playmaker to see what makes him tick in the classroom and on the field in our VYPE HYPE segment.
