Justin Juarez

Criminology and Justice Studies

Justin is both the club president and a team captain in only his second year with Humboldt Lacrosse. A transfer student from Santa Barbara City College, Justin stepped in a leadership role with the team from Day One, literally recruiting students in the dining hall before he had even ever practiced with the club. Since that very first practice, Justin has helped lead the team’s recruiting and outreach programs, and is always the first to meet prospects when they come on campus or act as an ambassador at public events. In his second year with the team, he was elected club president and named a team captain by the coaches. Additionally, he has served as a Public Safety Ambassador with University Police Department since 2022. In 2023, he has worked for Cal Poly Humboldt as Resident Advisor, supervising an on-campus residence building of 50 students.
