As a senior, he contributed to the team winning a Class 5A Championship.
He also competed in soccer.
Araguz accepted a football scholarship from NCAA Division I-AA Stephen F. Austin State University, where he was a four-year letterman.
As a junior, he led the conference in average yards per punt (42.6).
In July 1993, he had a two-day tryout with the Dallas Cowboys, but the team didn't sign him to a contract.

In 1996, he was drafted in the 17th round (103rd overall) by the Rhein Fire of the World League of American Football (WLAF), based on the recommendation of kicking coordinator Doug Blevins, who had seen Araguz during his tryouts with the Dolphins and Chargers.
He had 41 punts for a 42.3-yard average (second in the league).
He also was the kicker for the field goals (8-of-15 for a 53.3%), while international player Manfred Burgsmüller kicked the extra points.
In 1996, the Oakland Raiders stalwart punter Jeff Gossett was lost for the season with four broken ribs he suffered in the twelfth game against the Seattle Seahawks.
Araguz was tried out along with other punters, but lost out to Rich Camarillo, who pulled a groin muscle during warm-ups for his first game against the Miami Dolphins, which gave Araguz the opportunity to punt in the final three games of the season.
His first punt went for 52 yards against the Kansas City Chiefs.
His production of 13 punts for 534 yards (41-yard avg.) gave the Raiders confidence to release Gossett on February 14, 1997.
In 1997, he finished fifth in the league with 4,189 punting yards, and his 45-yards average ranked second in franchise history, behind the 45.3-yards per punt average set by Pro Football Hall of Famer Ray Guy in 1973.
In 1998, he set the NFL record for the most punts in a single-game (16), in a 7–6 win over the San Diego Chargers on October 11.
