CFC10 Zach Copeland
For Zach Copeland, there was a lot to like about the Gee-Gees.
āOverall, I had a great gut feeling about the University of Ottawa,ā Copeland said. āThey have a very strong football program and facilities. The city of Ottawa is very appealing to me, and I developed a great relationship with their coaching staff throughout my recruiting process. I also had an excellent time on my official visit.ā
Copeland added that he really likes the coaching staff. āThey all seem very committed and passionate about football and stressed how I could be an important asset to their team,ā he said.
Interested in human kinetics, Copeland noted that the school has a very strong kinesiology program.
