Personal: Ruby transfers to Corban from Clackamas Community College, just north of Salem, bringing a pedigree of wrestling dating back to his high school days. In his senior season at Birdville High School in his hometown of Richland Hills, Texas, Ruby donned a 19-8 head-to-head record and qualified for the regional tournament. He was elected Team Captain in 2021 and voted Most Improved following his Freestyle/Greco state qualifying season.

Although currently undecided on a major at Corban, Ruby plans to pursue a career in zookeeping or anthropology following his collegiate career.
