Speaking about his visit to the college, Ruben said:
“It was fun, my team won, and all the kids were really nice and easy going.
“I love education. Every year that goes by in my life, the more I want to be a good influence in it and obviously these little things might mean more than some of us might think, and I’m very happy to be part of it.”
