NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. – Boise State defensive back Kekaula Kaniho is one of 42 student-athletes named to the Watch List for the 2021 Lott IMPACT Trophy.
College defensive players are nominated to the Watch List based on the IMPACT on their teams on and off the field. IMPACT stands for Integrity, Maturity, Performance, Academics, Community and Tenacity. The 42 honorees represent the number Ronnie Lott wore during his illustrious career. Lott is a member of both the College Football Hall of Fame and Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Kaniho, who was among 24 finalists for the award in 2020, helped lead Boise State to a bowl game in each of his first three years on campus (the Broncos opted out of a 2020 bowl game). His 32 total tackles and team leading seven passes defended last season earned a 2020 All-Mountain West Second-Team honor, one year after earning a spot on the first team. He elected to return for his super senior season in 2021.
An excellent student in the classroom, Kaniho carries a 3.96 GPA as a health science major. He is a four-time Academic All-Mountain West honoree and three-time Mountain West Scholar-Athlete Award recipient. In 2019-20, he was a CoSIDA Division I Academic All-America Football Second Team and been named All-District 7 each of the last two years.
Kaniho has been extremely active in the Boise State community outside of football. During his four years on campus, he visited local middle and elementary schools and was a great role model to younger students. He discussed healthy lifestyles, good sportsmanship and the benefits that play can have for everyone. Kaniho also participates with the football program's "Broncos vs. Bullying" anti-bullying campaign.
