At Croton Harmon High School

Cohen was a four sport athlete, and stockpiled awards in Football, Lacrosse and Track. He was an All-League selection and team captain his senior season for the football team, and was named the Team's Offensive Line MVP. The Croton-on-Hudson, NY native, who was a scholar athlete four consecutive years, was also an All-League selection in both lacrosse and track. His efforts on the field were matched in the classroom, though, as Cohen was a member of the National Honor Society and was the recipient of the Presidential Award.
