Personal Statement
My name is Christopher Cruz Samaniego. I go by my middle name, Cruz. I cannot remember a time when was not passionate about the sport of football. It has been my dream to play football at the collegiate level. One of the biggest pieces of advice any couch has give me was to take this opportunity of being a student athlete and turn that into for four years that can change my life for ever. Meaning, preparing myself both academically and athletically to a point where I can earn a scholarship and earn a degree. To use football as a means to provide for my future with a Bachelors Degree. I am hopeful to pursue a degree in Physical Therapy of Sports Medicine which will enable me to give back to the sport after my playing days are over. My personal and academic growth has improved greatly during my senor year. I have had my challenges but I have faced them head on and that spirit translates to my play on the football field. I am a tireless worker and a developing leader of men. As a son of a military father, I value discipline, respect and leadership. I do not shy away from leadership or any challenge. I am looking for an opportunity to prove myself.
