Another of one of the state’s top pass rushers is Penn High School defensive lineman Cooper Reihl Cooper Reihl 6'1" | 205 lbs | DL Penn | 2028 State IN , who has six sacks on the season. The 6-foot-1, 205-pound defensive end had five sacks in one game in Week 6. Riehl displays a very high motor, with quick get-off, a strong counter move and very good instincts. Good block shedder who can turn the corner, flashes explosiveness, and takes great angles to the backfield. Love his pursuit, motor and range.

Reihl rotated in for the varsity team this year and had his moments, showing he belongs and can make plays. He plays hard and has a good motor. He’s fairly relentless and won’t take snaps off. I always appreciate high-effort guys because you can’t coach it. He’s got the talent, and the frame is starting to catch up. He’s got a really quick first step off the line and gets into the space of a lineman before their set. He’s constantly getting into the backfield and creating pressure and making TFLs. I think there’s a chance he has a huge junior season and takes off.

Reihl showed up and he showed out on his way to camp MVP for the defensive line. Watching his testing and drills he immediately caught my eye. He showed explosiveness and ability to bend in the 3 cone and 20-yard shuttle as well as the drills. All of those traits easily translated to the 1v1’s. Reihl lined up mostly at right end. He routinely won with his twitchy get-off and he showed and that ability to bend and turn the corner at a high level. The blockers struggled to get their hands on him due to his active and violent hands. I’m really looking forward to seeing him develop over the next couple of years.
