Brandon Cruse

Brandon is married to Melanie with whom they have three children: Conor age 13, Lilian age 11, and Oaklie age 9.  The majority of Brandon’s time outside of work and football is spent watching  and driving each of the kids to perform in their activities. In one of the most fortunate stretches of postseason assignments ever, Brandon worked the 2019 Rose Bowl, 2020 National Championship, and 2021 Big 12 Conference Championship.  Brandon was an On-field official in the Inaugural 2012 Stars and Stripes Academy in Salt Lake City, Utah and has been actively involved for every year since that time. Congratulations to Brandon who on May 3rd, 2022, was hired by the NFL and was the first SASA alumni to be hired by the “League”.
