Cruz collected 60 hits including eight homers, 13 doubles and two triples while driving in 42 runs and scoring 30 runs.

From his first start March 8, Cruz caught fire, hitting safely in 24-straight games through April 25, a span over which he batted .469 (46-for-98) with six homers, 10 doubles, and 37 RBIs.

In Mountain West play, he hit safely in 19 of the 21 conference games in which he appeared and finished the regular season fifth in the conference with a .407 average.
