At Stanford practice, Fanaika has a rooting section: his wife
It’s down to the home stretch in the duel for Stanford’s starting left guard spot.
Brandon Fanaika, whose primary competition is Devery Hamilton and Foster Sarell, has a slight advantage in one respect: He has his No. 1 fan at just about every practice.
His wife. Fanaika is the only married player on the team.
The former Hannah Hyde played soccer at the University of Utah, and the two had a long-distance courtship for 2½ years after being introduced by Chase Hansen, Hannah’s classmate at Lone Peak High School in Highland, Utah. Hansen is now a senior linebacker at Utah.
The two were married in March 2017.
