Early years
Nick Kaepercolin Jr. was born in 2026 in Berlin, Germany to Laura and Nick Kaepercolin Sr. While Laura is earning her money as a teacher, Nick Sr. is known as a retired professional football player who played for the London Royals, the Baltimore Hawks and the Berlin Fire Salamanders. Nick Jr. has a younger brother named Max, but he is much less interested in football. Nick, on the other hand, realized early on that he wanted to follow in his father's footsteps, and he began playing football as a young child and was encouraged by his father through hard training. Kaepercolin Jr. also started as a QB, but he switched to the RB position after a short time, for which the young German was clearly more talented. He played high school football for the Blue Devils football team and rushed for more than 1000 yards and 15 touchdowns in his junior year. In his senior year, he even put 2337 yards on the ground and scored 28 touchdowns.
College career
Coming out of high school, Kaepercolin Jr. was considered as one of the best prospects in the whole nation. He was rated as the No. 1 running back and he received many scholarship offers. In the end, he decided to play for the Blue Mountain State. In his first year, Kaepercolin Jr. wasn't used too much, but he was already showing his talent. In 7 games played, he got 40 attempts where he gained 277 yards and scored 4 TDs. As a sophomore, he already got way more playing time and he finished the season with more than 500 yards and 8 TDs. The team went to the championship game, where Kaepercolin couldn't play because of an injury and the BMS lost that game. In his junior year, Kaepercolin was the main weapon in the offense. He rushed for 743 yards and 13 TDs, while also adding more than 300 yards and 3 TDs through the air. In this year, BMS went back to the championship game, where Kaepercolin led the team to the championship as MVP with a 153 yard game and 2 TDs. After that fantastic performance, Kaepercolin decided to declare for the upcoming S31 DSFL draft and is expected to be picked in an early round.
