BYU receiver Aleva Hifo was in Kalani Sitake’s first recruiting class at BYU. He’ll bow out at the Hawaii Bowl.

Provo • Of the first recruiting class Kalani Sitake welcomed as head coach of the BYU football program four years ago, only one is graduating this year. While others went on to serve missions before coming to Provo or have redshirted a season, Aleva Hifo is the lone athlete that will be ending his collegiate career four years after Sitake took over.

Hifo has been there through all the changes Sitake has implemented during his tenure, and the senior believes they’ve all been for the better.

“I’ve been really excited to see what he’s done with the program, especially with the players as individuals — not just throughout the football field,” Hifo said.
