Personal: Cowan is from Frisco, Texas, where he graduated from Lone Star High School. He earned Cum Laude honors for his academic achievements while excelling in multiple sports.

However, his biggest contributions came in lacrosse, where he served as team captain for three years, demonstrating leadership and commitment to the game.

Outside of sports, Eli enjoys riding his Rip Stick, playing Fortnite, and working out.
