Congrats to Conner. Got to talk to him a bit this year. Very glad for this young man!!!

It was announced publicly during the pre-game senior ceremonies. Conner will attend Harvard and play football for the Crimson. Congrats!!

 

On a related side note, it is rather apparent that he received far more of his IQ genes from his mother's side.

 

Coop, I am sure Conner's dad would be the first to agree. Congrats to Conner, a great leader on a great path!

Great for him. He's a class individual.

What a great opportunity! Good luck to him.

OUTSTANDING accomplishment! Best of luck, young man! Congratulations to the Hempel family.

Congrats to Conner. Great player, even better person. Harvard is lucky to get him. Pretty awesome family also.:clap:

I couldn't agree more.

This is fantastic news! Congratulations to Conner. We often forget high school is about education (not sports) and this fine man prepared himself in every aspect. Best of luck for the next 4 years!

Fine young man from a great family! Great opportunity that he worked very hard to achieve!

Congratulations to Conner and the Hempel family.

 

I know he was looking at a bunch of different DI schools and even one in the SEC. Way to follow your heart Conner!!!! I think Harvard will be a perfect place for you!!!!

 

I'm now a Crimson fan!!!!

 

Beat Yale!!!

Can't think of a more prestigious place to attend. Congrat to Conner and the Hempel family. Thanks for all the thrills you have given to Union and will continue to do so during the playoffs. GREAT NEWS! CONGRATS!!!

Coop, I am sure Conner's dad would be the first to agree. Congrats to Conner, a great leader on a great path!

 

Just saying that people on here that may not know the family may take that comment as a jab at Mr. Hempel's intelligence.

It was a joke, nothing more, nothing less. I know the family very well. Rich is a great guy and very smart.

Congratulations to Conner Hempel. I have known his family for a very long time and they are outstanding folks. I love to see the local kids do well, and Conner has certainly paved his future in gold. Kudos to you young man, and good luck to you down the road.
