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

Some challenges I have faced throughout my football career is I was always underestimated because of my size I wasn’t always the tallest but what I did have was I had heart I wanted to be the best kid on the field at all times and I would do anything and everything to make sure I was and I always wasn’t the fastest but as I got older I got faster and faster because I knew that I could Be great

What type of college are you looking for?

I am looking for a college with not only a great football program, but also a good educational program that pushes me both on the field and in the classroom.

Cruz has plenty of varsity experience for one of the top teams in the nation in Corona Centennial. He slated in at guard during his sophomore campaign and showed he can more than hold his own. He is a violent blocker that does a good job of getting underneath defenders and snaps out of his stance quickly while creating immediate vertical push. He has well-timed punches in pass protection and stays within his frame while able to recover and anchor down if needed as well. He is a no-brainer next level kid and should also fill in nicely on the interior at the next level.
