Alex Mathews remains a proven, low-drama power back with a résumé built on production and trust
In the 2019 season, Alex Mathews gave Colgate a dependable grind-it-out option, rushing for 495 yards and 6 touchdowns on 119 carries while also adding 14 catches, showing he could stay on the field and help in multiple phases. He’s the kind of back who wins with reliability, vision, and toughness rather than flash—an old-school mover who fits a physical run game. His career Colgate totals and all-league recognition back up the tape: he produced consistently, handled workhorse reps, and brought a mature, team-first edge that coaches tend to love.
