DEMOPOLIS -- Defensive end Rahmeel Cook received a commission to West Point and signed to play at Army Wednesday, leading a trio of Demopolis Tigers who inked football scholarships.
Cook, who had 65 tackles and five sacks for the Tigers in 2015, chose Army over offers from a handful of schools, including Southern Miss.
“It was really the opportunities outside of football but, at the same time, I’ll still be playing D-I football,” Cook said of his decision.
“Having a kid sign with West Point is great for our school. It says good things for our school system and for Rahmeel Cook and his family,” Demopolis coach Stacy Luker said.
