The El Paso County Coroner's Office in Colorado Springs did not immediately return a phone call from Military.com inquiring about the medical emergency that led to Brown's death.
First responders were called right after Brown suffered his medical emergency and "attempted life saving measures which were ultimately unsuccessful," according to the news release.
Brown graduated from the Air Force Academy Preparatory School in May 2021 and joined the Air Force Academy's football team, where he played offensive lineman. He was part of the team's 2021 and 2022 winning seasons.
"He was a pure joy to coach and have as a teammate," Troy Calhoun, head football coach at the Air Force Academy, said in the news release. "He was tough, a great worker, and no one unselfishly pulled harder for others than Hunter. His mom and dad, Candyce and Dustin, raised a wonderful son who made each of us a better person. We love our great brother, and our thoughts and prayers are with Hunter's incredible soul and his family."
Brown was pursuing a degree in management, as well as a minor in French, according to the academy.
