Cooper Matthews is Franklin’s heartbeat at both ends
In the 2025-26 season, Cooper Matthews has been Franklin’s do-it-all guard: 16.0 points, 4.1 rebounds, 84 assists and 51 steals, while starting every game and bouncing back from an offseason knee injury. He’s a high-motor, first-team All-HCAC player who doesn’t just score — he creates, defends, and shows up in winning moments, including 24 double-figure outings in his last 25 games. If you want a combo guard who can carry usage without shrinking from the moment, he’s an easy fit.
