Undersized? No — this linebacker brought toughness, instincts and big-play punch to Towson
In the 2011 season, Alexander DiSanzo was one of Towson’s quiet engines on defense, finishing with 68 tackles, 4 tackles for loss and 3 interceptions while starting 11 games at outside linebacker.[3][12] The standout trait isn’t just production — it’s versatility and feel: ESPN’s recruiting evaluation described him as someone who performs well in all three facets and can line up as an all-around tight end or a sound outside backer/safety, which hints at rare football instincts and fit-anywhere value.[9] He was also described by Towson as a hard-hitting, unsung hero whose role grew as the season went on, making him the kind of competitive, assignment-sound defender coaches love to trust.[3][12]
