IOWA CITY, Iowa — University of Iowa junior kicker Drew Stevens has been tabbed Big Ten Co-Special Teams Player of the Week following Iowa’s 13-10 Heroes Game Trophy triumph over Nebraska, it was announced Monday by the league office. Stevens shares the weekly honor with Michigan kicker Dominic Zvada.

The conference weekly honor is the fourth of Stevens’ career and second in as many weeks. He was tabbed Freshman of the Week after his performance in a win over Northwestern in 2022. Stevens was Special Teams Player of the Week after a victory over the Wildcats at Wrigley Field in 2023 and following Iowa’s road win at Maryland two weeks ago.

Stevens made both field-goal attempts, including a game-winning 53-yard field goal as time expired to give Iowa the 13-10 victory over the Huskers. Stevens also connected on a 20-yarder in the third quarter. The 53-yard field goal was his third game-winning kick of his career; he made a 21-yarder with 28 seconds left in a road win at Minnesota in 2022 and a 53-yarder with 14 seconds remaining versus Northwestern in 2023.

The native of North Augusta, South Carolina, has made 53 field goals, surpassing Keith Duncan in the regular season finale, for fourth most in program history. Stevens has made a single-season best 19 field goals in 2024, while his 1.58 field goals made per game rank second best in the Big Ten and 14th nationally. The game-winning kick against the Huskers was his eighth career 50+ yarder, which is a school record.

Iowa has beaten Nebraska by identical 13-10 scores — winning on a successful field goal attempt as time expired — each of the last two seasons.

Four Hawkeyes have earned Big Ten weekly honors six total times this year. In addition to Stevens’ two accolades, Kaleb Johnson was recognized after Iowa wins over border rivals Minnesota and Wisconsin; Aaron Graves was honored following the victory over Washington, while Kaden Wetjen earned the distinction following Iowa’s triumph over Northwestern.

Iowa finished the regular season 8-4 overall and tied for fifth place in the Big Ten standings with a 6-3 conference record. The Hawkeyes will learn their bowl destination Sunday, Dec. 8.
