My name is Ezzie, but my family and close friends call me EJ. I attended Harlingen South High School in South Texas, where I participated in both football and track. During my high school career, I was able to record over 1,100 all-purpose yards in football and make it all the way to the Regional Championships in track during my senior year. Because of my performance during my senior year, I was given the opportunity to continue my athletic career at the collegiate level in Minnesota. I am now a Division III football and track student-athlete at Hamline University in Saint Paul, Minnesota, where I am majoring in Business. You can find me on all social media platforms @EzjCortez.
