Chaminade-Madonna defeated West Boca Raton 18-10 during Florida high school football's opening week. CMHS star running back and 2026 Texas football commit Derrek Cooper had a dominant day on the ground, breaking off multiple long runs and leading his team to a close victory.
One of his most exciting plays of the day was this 71-yard touchdown scamper that was unfortunately called back due to an offensive holding call.
At 210-pounds, he runs with an incredible amount of power and seeks out contact on a play-by-play basis. He's a perfect fit for the Longhorns' downhill run game, specifically inside between the tackles.
