Cruz guided the 16U Open Volleyball Baton Rouge squad to a first place finish at the Cross Court Classic, a fourth place finish at the President’s Day Classic, a 13th place finish at Lonestar, a 27th place finish at Big South and a 29th place finish at AAU’s during the spring of 2013. He continued coaching the group through their 17U and 18U club seasons. The squad featured current Ragin’ Cajuns Sydney Davis and Hanna Rovira.
He attended Mansfield Timberview High School in Arlington, Texas, where he was a four-year letterwinner in baseball under Robert Owens and student assistant/practice player for the volleyball team under Beth Wills.
