Alex Hansen brings veteran disruption and captain-level toughness to Air Force
In the 2015 season, Alex Hansen was a first-team All-Mountain West defensive lineman who led Air Force in tackles for loss (15.5) and sacks (7.5), while also blocking two kicks and earning the program’s highest individual honor.[7][9] His differentiators were relentless backfield pressure, production that jumped off the page for a DL, and leadership qualities strong enough that teammates voted him captain.[9] For a team that values discipline, effort, and game-changing defensive plays, Hansen fit the prototype: tough, disruptive, and consistently around the ball.[7][9]
