Kimberly Cruz '23 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing basketball since I was 11 years old. I grew up watching my family playing basketball and inspired me to give it a try. After my first practice I told my parents I wanted to quit. Thankfully I didn't give up and I kept playing the sport I now love. I would love to have the opportunity to play college basketball, not only to play the basketball but also to get my education in engineering and designing. 

I have strong ball handling skills, and high basketball IQ. I try to lead by example while also help encouraging my teammates. I am a team leader, very coachable, I strive to be the hardest working player on and off the court. 

In the classroom, I am always on top of my grades, to maintain a high GPA.

I want to attend college to continue my dream not just on the basketball court but also in the classroom. I am open to all options and want to ultimately find the right college match at the highest level possible. I really hope I become a great role model to all my peers. Hope to make my parents proud.
