EL CAJON (KUSI)- Tristan Diaz is a junior at Granite Hills High School, a young man that has won three CIF football titles and most recently added the first lacrosse title in school history. Also, in the fold not only does he now have four total cif titles in two sports he also is going to play division one lacrosse at the University of Utah.

“Utah reached out over the summer, and after going on a few visits to other schools I went over to Utah to go check it out with my dad that place was amazing. The campus alone was the best I’ve ever seen.” Its a great atmosphere to be in and that played a big effect in my decision.” Diaz said.

“For lacrosse its a lot more fast paced, going on the fly as far as substituting and just thinking on the fly as well. In football you have brakes, in lacrosse your always moving. What also was cool just seeing that environment and how Utah just stands out from other schools. It was really nice to make my decision early and thankfully I had enough choices to have that opportunity it gives me less stress with all the colleges reaching out and everything.”
