Brazilian sensationEduardo Camara (Cedar Hill, Tex.) is drawing interest from colleges across the country, primarily from LSU, Alabama, Rice, Kansas, Miami, Oklahoma and Miami.

Camara moved to the U.S. in 2002 from the city of Natal in northeast Brazil. When he arrived he didn't speak any English, but according to Camara he was able to learn most of what he needed in just a few months.

He took the same mindset when he became a football player as well. Camara was a very talented soccer player, so the Cedar Hill coaches decided to try him out as a kicker.
"I played soccer and the coaches just said, 'Go out there and kick it,'" said Camara.
Just going out there and kicking it is exactly what he did. It wasn't until this year that Camara began working with a private coach dedicated to kicking, and he still had one of the smoothest deliveries of all the kickers at Sunday's camp.
Along with soccer, that smoothness of movement comes from another, more unexpected, form of training.
"I did Capoeira for about two years. It's where my flexibility comes from," said Camara.
