Early life and education
Nolan Laufenberg was born on March 25, 1999, in Castle Rock, Colorado. He attended Castle View High School there, earning three varsity letters in football and two in basketball. He was all-conference on offense in football in three of his four years, being twice on the first-team.[1] Following his senior year of 2016, Laufenberg went to the United States Air Force Academy, to play for their Falcon football team.[1] As a true freshman in 2016, Laufenberg did not see any varsity action.
As a sophomore in 2018, Laufenberg appeared in twelve games, and started nine. He played all thirteen games the following year, starting all but one. He was named first-team all-Mountain West Conference and first-team all-Colorado following the season.[1] The 2020 season was shortened due to COVID-19, only allowing him to play six games.
