Recent graduate Cooper Tulloch passes away
You wouldn’t know after first meeting him that Cooper Tulloch played football.
While media often depict players as aggressive or loud, Cooper—who played safety on Case Western Reserve University’s football team—was quite the opposite.
“Cooper was very quiet, very reserved, but very, very popular with his teammates and certainly his coaches,” said Head Football Coach Greg Debeljak. “He just went about his work very quietly but was a very hard worker, and very dependable.”
Cooper died on Sunday in Cleveland in what appears to have been a hit and run accident, just seven weeks after graduating from Case Western Reserve. He was 22.
