At the rate he’s going, former North Carolina football player and Wilmington native Jonathan Cooper may soon run out of room in his trophy case. The All-America offensive guard, who was taken by the Arizona Cardinals with the No. 7 overall pick in April’s NFL draft, has been named one of 12 finalists for the Anthony J. McKelvin Award, symbolic of the ACC’s Male Athlete of the Year for 2012-13.
