Laval offers ‘another level of competition’ for commits

Laval welcomes a local commit and a Quรฉbec commit to their 2019 class.

Always one of the top teams in Canada, the Laval Rouge et Or promise to push commits Jean-Philippe Cordero, a quarterback from Collรจge d’Alma and Olivier Bamrounsavath, a receiver from Cรฉgep Limoilou, to be their best.

Jean-Philippe Cordero

Always seeking to improve, Jean-Philippe Cordero is ready for the challenge of being a Rouge et Or. โ€œI chose this school because I think Laval can bring me to another level of competition,โ€ he said. โ€œThe coaching staff is awesome.โ€

Cordero spent five years with Les Lynx du Pavillon Wilbrod-Dufour (RSEQ) and three with Les Jeannois du Collรจge d’Alma (RSEQ Division 3). The 6โ€™2, 225lbs athlete helped his high school team with a Bol dโ€™Or in 2015. In cรฉgep, he was named as the best quarterback in the league and was on the 2018 all-star team. Cordero, who is from Alma, Quรฉbec, is interested in physical education.

At a young age, Olivier Bamrounsavath played with the โ€œMini Rouge et Or,โ€ and now itโ€™s time to upgrade to the real thing. The product of Quebec City, Quรฉbec, said he chose Laval for a few reasons: โ€œStaying in my hometown, the coaching staff is amazing, their winning records and, most of all, they are willing to form me as a receiver, which is interesting.โ€

Bamrounsavath, who has been playing for ten years, said that he has known the Rouge et Or coaches for years. He spent his entire career playing as a quarterback and has played for Lโ€™Arsenal Acadรฉmie Saint-Louis (RSEQ) and Les Titans du Cรฉgep Limoilou (RSEQ Division 1). He was Limoilouโ€™s rookie of the year in 2016 and recognized as a RSEQ student-athlete in 2017 and 2018. Standing at 5โ€™10, 190lbs, he is interested in architecture.
