IOWA CITY — University of Iowa punter Rhys Dakin was named to the Football Writers Association of America Freshman All-America Team on Tuesday.
Dakin is the fourth Hawkeye to earn FWAA Freshman All-America distinction over the last four years, joining offensive lineman Connor Colby and defensive lineman Lukas Van Ness in 2021 and punter Tory Taylor in 2020.
Dakin averaged 44.1 yards on 64 punts, which ranked fourth in the Big Ten and 24th nationally. Thirty-three of his punts were fair caught, 29 were downed inside the 20-yard-line, and 16 traveled 50 yards or more. Only five of his punts were touchbacks.
The native of Melbourne, Australia, was also honored as second team all-conference by the media and third team by the Big Ten head coaches.
