Coppola played for St. John's Prep in Danvers, Mass. He led the Eagles in rushing during his junior and senior seasons, and finished his high school career with 2,442 yards and 20 touchdowns. He selected UNH over the University of Massachusetts.

Some have projected Coppola as a wide receiver or split end at the college level.
