Son of Matt and Becky Cross...one of eight children...also enjoys playing guitar and juggling...won the MAC championship in pole vault for Messiah's track team...favorite Bible verse, "Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for God's glory." (I Corinthians 10:31) because it focuses him on his motivation to excel.
