This week The High School Highlight profile North's junior fullback/linebacker Isreal Araiza. He is in his first year of varsity football and is already making an impact for the Mustangs.
Araiza has been playing football since he was 6 years old and even played for Team USA's 15 and under team. He is a warrior on the field and just as impressive in the classroom.
He has 3.4 GPA and plans to go to college to get into sports marketing and training. He also inspires to play football in college. At just a junior he has already visited a few college campus'.
Araiza has goals of helping North turn in to a football school. He also wants to average 12 tackles a game, a goal that is very reachable for the young man.
He has always wanted to play football and tells a story being 4 years old at his sisters cheer practice and crying because he was too young to play. His dad had coached him since he started playing so football is a lifestyle to him.
Araiza is a perfect example of a kid whose love for something has spilled over to other parts of life and has made him an impressive young man.
