In Loving Memory of Alex Ernst
It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Alex Ernst, a beloved and integral member of the Cyclone Football Family. Alex’s sudden and unexpected departure has sent ripples of grief throughout our community, leaving a void that can never truly be filled.
Alex was more than just a teammate — he was a brother, a leader, a motivator, and a friend. From the moment he joined the Cyclone Football program, Alex brought with him an unmatched spirit of dedication, determination, and heart. Whether it was under the bright lights on game night or during early morning practices when the rest of the world was still asleep, Alex gave everything he had — not just to the game, but to his teammates, coaches, and the greater Cyclone family.
His contributions on the field were undeniable. He played with passion, courage, and relentless drive, always putting the team first and lifting those around him. But perhaps what made Alex truly special was who he was off the field. He was known for his infectious smile, kind heart, and the way he could lighten even the heaviest of moods with just a few words or a well-timed joke. He embodied what it meant to be a teammate and a friend.
Alex’s passing is a devastating loss not just for our team, but for everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. He touched countless lives through his warmth, integrity, and unwavering support for those around him. His absence will be deeply felt in the locker room, on the field, in the classroom, and in the hearts of all who knew him.
To Alex’s family — we extend our deepest and most heartfelt condolences. Your son, brother, and loved one made an immeasurable impact on our lives, and we are forever grateful that he was part of ours. We stand with you in this time of grief, and we hope you find some comfort in knowing just how deeply Alex was loved and admired.
In the coming days, we will share plans to honor Alex’s memory and legacy. There will be opportunities for the community to gather, to share stories, and to celebrate the life of a young man who gave us so much in too short a time.
Though he may no longer walk among us, Alex’s spirit will forever live on in every game we play, in every huddle we break, and in every heart he touched. His legacy will continue to inspire us to play harder, love deeper, and live fuller — just as he did.
Rest in peace, Alex. You will always be part of our family. You will never be forgotten.
