Reece Vander Zee - Finds end zone to cap season Vander Zee caught 4 of 5 targets for 33 yards and one touchdown during Wednesday's 34-27 victory versus Vanderbilt.

Impact Vander Zee was largely quiet in 2025 in what was a largely quiet Iowa passing attack. Still, he managed to close out his year on a high note, reeling in a season-high four catches for finding the end zone for his second touchdown of the season. He'll look to take the next step in his development next fall and emerge as a consistently productive receiver.

DJ Vonnahme - Explodes vs. Commodores Vonnahme hauled in all seven targets for 146 yards and one touchdown during Wednesday's 34-27 win over Vanderbilt.

Impact Vonnahme had been a solid receiving threat for Iowa all season, but he was never as involved as he was in the ReliaQuest Bowl win over Vanderbilt. The tight end continued his end-of-year hot streak and surpassed 100 yards for the first time in his career. It was a strong performance to close out the season, one that should position him well to run it back as the Hawkeyes' starting tight end next fall.

Kamari Moulton - Nears 100 yards in bowl win Moulton compiled 14 carries for 95 yards and one touchdown and hauled in their only target for two yards during Wednesday's 34-27 victory against Vanderbilt.

Impact Moulton stayed hot in Iowa's ReliaQuest Bowl win over Vanderbilt, dominating the carries for the Hawkeyes and nearing 100 yards on the ground for the second straight game. Moulton had a career year in 2025 as Iowa's lead back, rushing for 878 yards and five scores on 5.2 yards per carry. Should he elect to return to Iowa City, he figures to once again be the top ball-carrier next fall.

Mark Gronowski - Three scores again in bowl win Gronowski completed 16 of 22 passes for 212 yards, two touchdowns and one interception during Wednesday's 34-27 victory versus Vanderbilt. He also had 10 rushes for 54 yards with o...

Impact Gronowski scored three touchdowns for the second straight game as Iowa topped Vanderbilt in the ReliaQuest Bowl. The senior gunslinger had one of his more efficient days as a passer, completing 72 percent of his throws and tossing two touchdowns for just the second time this season. In what appears to be his final season of college football, Gronowski's passing numbers were mediocre (1,741 yards, 10 touchdowns and seven interceptions) but he did serious work on the ground with 545 yards and 16 touchdowns.
