Cooper Cowan brings ball-hawking upside and early versatility to Southern Utah’s secondary
Cowan enters Southern Utah as a **freshman safety** with proven playmaking instincts from Westlake High, where he posted **43 tackles and 5 interceptions in 2021-22** after **60 tackles and 3 interceptions in 2020-21**; those takeaway numbers suggest real range and anticipation, not just volume tackling[1][2]. At **6'0", 190 pounds**, he has a solid college-ready frame, and his high school résumé also shows he can impact games in multiple ways, including scoring points on defense and special teams[2][3]. If you need a secondary piece who can read throws, attack the ball, and compete with confidence, Cowan is worth a look[1][2].
