This week on the FCS Nation x Northwestern Mutual x Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation Challenge, we’re spotlighting one of the top defensive forces, and culture-setters in the country: Kaden Vig, edge rusher for the No. 4 North Dakota Fighting Hawks.

Fresh off a dominant win over Stone’s alma mater, Southern Illinois, Kaden joins us to talk about what’s driving UND’s rise, how the team’s identity has evolved under Head Coach Eric Schmidt, and what it means to represent the program in this season’s Challenge.

More than just an athlete, Kaden embodies what this partnership is all about, purpose, leadership, and using your platform for something bigger. As UND prepares to take on Indiana State this week, Kaden shares insight into the team’s mindset, his approach to leadership, and why standing for kids battling childhood cancer through Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation gives every snap a deeper meaning.

Tune in, get inspired, and help us turn FCS fandom into impact. 🍋💪
