LUCK CRUZ EARNS TRIPLE GOLD IN NAGA EVENT

PRESS RELEASE – On May 17, 2025, Levi “Luck” Cruz of Guam earned triple gold at the North American Grappling Association (NAGA) annual tournament in Honolulu, Hawai‘i—a meaningful achievement for the young athlete, his family, and the broader Guam Jiu-Jitsu community.

Representing Atos Guam and training out of Island Jiu Jitsu, Cruz competed across multiple divisions, demonstrating focus, determination, and respect for the sport. His performances reflect the time, discipline, and support behind his journey as a competitor.

Currently ranked #12 in the world in the Abu Dhabi Combat Club (ADCC) youth rankings—across all ages and weight classes—Cruz is grateful for the opportunity to represent Guam on a global stage and continue growing in the sport he loves.

Despite his continued progress and dedication to both Jiu-Jitsu and other combat sports, Cruz does not yet have a Gi sponsor. As he humbly continues to pursue his goals, his family welcomes interest from Jiu-Jitsu apparel brands who believe in supporting the next generation of martial artists.

This latest tournament success is another step forward in Cruz’s journey. His story serves as a reminder that with hard work, humility, and community support, young athletes from Guam can compete with the best in the world.
