Holy Cross’s Dependable Senior Long Snapper Francisco Castro Brings Stability and Experience
In the 2024 season, Francisco Castro appeared in all 12 games as Holy Cross’s long snapper, giving the Crusaders a steady specialist with game-day reliability and senior-level poise[1]. A transfer from Arkansas and a former high-school long snapper/tight end, he brings multi-phase football experience, a 6-foot-1, 228-pound frame, and the kind of low-drama consistency coaches love on special teams[1][3]. He also earned Patriot League Academic Honor Roll recognition, which points to discipline and maturity off the field[2].
