Steven Montez was born into football

-- Special thanks to Coach Jesse Perales for giving us this insight into Buffaloes quarterback Steven Montez --

It all started 21 years ago when I was attending Western New Mexico University, that’s where I met my lifelong friend, Alfred Montez. He was one heck of an athlete from Granada, Colorado and carried the pride of the Granada high school Bobcats. He was a two-time state champion in 8-man football and also won state in basketball and baseball—Just one heck of an athlete. He was our quarterback for the Mustangs and could really play with great size at about 6’2" and 225 pounds.
