Lehi's Cammon Cooper, University of Utah commit Jack Tuttle and BYU target Tanner McKee were already considered among the nation's best quarterback prospects in the Class of 2018 before last weekend, having made the 24-man field at the Elite 11 camp in Los Angeles.

Now the trio is in even more exclusive company, as all three were selected on Monday among 12 finalists who will compete at The Opening finals June 28-July 3 at Nike headquarters in Beaverton, Ore.

According to Scout.com's Greg Biggins and Blair Angulo, who were at the event, Cooper was on the bubble for final selection after the third day of competition on Sunday, but the Washington State commit did enough to get into the final field.
