Early years

Harlow was born in San Clemente, California as one of three sons born to parents Pat and Jennifer Harlow. His brothers are Cole and Jack. Harlow played football at San Clemente High School. His performances as an offensive tackle and defensive lineman earned him several accolades. Among his accomplishments, Harlow was ranked No. 47 on Rivals.com's national offensive tackles list and No. 59 as an overall prospect in California. Both ESPN and 247Sports ranked Harlow in their lists of top 50 tackles.[3]

College career

Being a highly recruited prospect, Harlow received as many as 17 scholarship offers. In 2013, he joined the Oregon State Beavers and entered action as a replacement right tackle by the fourth game against San Diego State.[3] During his sophomore year, Harlow was one of two offensive linemen to start all 12 games. He played the first five games as a right tackle before finishing the last seven games as a left tackle. During his junior year, Harlow sustained a leg injury during game seven against Colorado, prematurely ending his season. He missed spring training for his senior season in 2016 while rehabilitating his leg injury however, he returned to play the remaining nine games as a starting left tackle. Despite sporadic periods of practice as a center, Harlow played exclusively as a tackle. He graduated from OSU with a degree in human development and family sciences.[3]
