Laval offers ‘another level of competition’ for commits

Laval welcomes a local commit and a QuΓ©bec commit to their 2019 class.

Always one of the top teams in Canada, the Laval Rouge et Or promise to push commits Jean-Philippe Cordero, a quarterback from CollΓ¨ge d’Alma and Olivier Bamrounsavath, a receiver from CΓ©gep Limoilou, to be their best.

Jean-Philippe Cordero

Always seeking to improve, Jean-Philippe Cordero is ready for the challenge of being a Rouge et Or. β€œI chose this school because I think Laval can bring me to another level of competition,” he said. β€œThe coaching staff is awesome.”

Cordero spent five years with Les Lynx du Pavillon Wilbrod-Dufour (RSEQ) and three with Les Jeannois du CollΓ¨ge d’Alma (RSEQ Division 3). The 6’2, 225lbs athlete helped his high school team with a Bol d’Or in 2015. In cΓ©gep, he was named as the best quarterback in the league and was on the 2018 all-star team. Cordero, who is from Alma, QuΓ©bec, is interested in physical education.

At a young age, Olivier Bamrounsavath played with the β€œMini Rouge et Or,” and now it’s time to upgrade to the real thing. The product of Quebec City, QuΓ©bec, said he chose Laval for a few reasons: β€œStaying in my hometown, the coaching staff is amazing, their winning records and, most of all, they are willing to form me as a receiver, which is interesting.”

Bamrounsavath, who has been playing for ten years, said that he has known the Rouge et Or coaches for years. He spent his entire career playing as a quarterback and has played for L’Arsenal AcadΓ©mie Saint-Louis (RSEQ) and Les Titans du CΓ©gep Limoilou (RSEQ Division 1). He was Limoilou’s rookie of the year in 2016 and recognized as a RSEQ student-athlete in 2017 and 2018. Standing at 5’10, 190lbs, he is interested in architecture.
