Kaiser Cambra-Cho goes Black & Gold

It was back in January that safety Kaiser Cambra-Cho pulled down an offer from Army West Point during his Junior Day visit, as he made what would be his first of two visits to the academy.

This past weekend, the 6-foot-2, 185 pounder registered visit No. 2 and that’s when the product of St. Louis High School in Honolulu (HI) decided to make the call and commit to head coach Jeff Monken and the Army Black Knights.

In this exclusive interview with GoBlackKnights.com, the 2-star prospect who is long athletic player discussed the vibe of the moment on Saturday when he extended his pledge to wear the Black & Gold and join the Army football Brotherhood.

“I committed on Saturday to Coach Monken while we were in his office talking,” said the newest member of the 2020 class, who recruiting has been handled by Coach Sean Saturnio.

“We talked about my day and how I had an amazing time. After that Coach Monken and I talked about how West Point is a great opportunity that will set you up for life and how special of a place it is. At the end of the meeting I told him that I was committed to play for Army West Point.”

“Coach Monken was fired up ... he stood up with a big smile on his face to welcome me to the brotherhood and let Coach Saturnio know what had just happened,” added Cambra-Cho.

Probably the most notable recruiting competition for Cambra-Cho’s talents came from Air Force, who have also offered the safety. However, as he explained, Army West Point offered him everything he was looking for in a school and football program.

“I visited West Point twice and both times I was their I felt like it was something special,” he explained yesterday to GBK. “The culture there is something that you can’t find anywhere in the country. I am also looking to major in the engineering field and I know that West Point’s education is amongst the best.”

“I haven't thought about any other visits so no. My commitment is pretty solid. I don't see myself de-committing and it's been a dream of mine since I was a kid and I'm really excited to get out there and be a part of the Long Gray Line.”

Cambra-Cho readily admitted that he has his eyes on the recruiting progress of Army continuously growing 2020 class and he has been impressed to say the least.

“I feel like their recruiting is looking really strong so far,” he stated. “I know they’ve gotten some great commits on the offensive side of the ball. I’m looking forward to seeing more defensive guys committing and join the brotherhood.”
