About Cruz

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I would describe my gameplay style as a combination of quick bursts of explosive power and sustained aggression. I use my natural length and speed to create separation and attack defenders, staying disciplined in my reads and reactions. My fast-twitch movement allows me to get off the line quickly and cover ground in a hurry, while my aggressive mindset means I’m always looking for ways to impact.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I would describe my mentality as driven and resilient. I pride myself on being a hard worker who doesn’t back down from challenges, always pushing to improve both on the field and in the classroom. I’m extremely coachable and committed to listening to feedback and applying it to get better. My goal is to be the best version of myself every day.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Yes, I’m a member of the National Honor Society, where I participate in various service projects and leadership activities that help me give back to the community while balancing my academics. I’m also actively involved in the Church of the Highlands, where I volunteer in youth leadership roles and community outreach efforts.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I’ve built strong leadership and teamwork skills as a team captain, helping to motivate and support my teammates. I’m also dedicated to community service, volunteering as a youth coach for our feeder teams and helping around my neighborhood. These experiences, along with my focus in honors courses, have shaped me into a well-rounded student-athlete who values commitment, balance, and giving back.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

One significant challenge I faced during my junior year was being asked to gain a substantial amount of weight to help my team. This required me to consistently lift heavy weights and eat a very high-calorie diet, pushing me both physically and mentally. I had to step outside of my comfort zone and stay focused on my goal, even when it felt overwhelming.

What type of college are you looking for?

I’m looking for a college with a strong technology department since I plan to major in database management. I also value a solid coaching staff that can help me grow as a player and a person. My goal is to become the best version of myself on and off the field.
