was a captain on the 2025 Choate Rosemary Hall team that beat Phillips Exeter Academy to win the Leon Modeste Bowl. Brooder is what central casting would look for in a middle linebacker. He’s a powerful player who moves the pile backwards and leaves a mark when he makes a tackle. Brooder displays good tackling form, identifies the ball carrier quickly and does a good job of fending off blockers so he can make the stop. He’s a hard-hitter who has the range to make plays sideline to sideline, but may be at his best when he’s plugging holes between the tackles.
