Class of 2025 offensive lineman Will Hahn waited for the right college football opportunity to come along.

And this past week it did.

Hahn, a 6-foot-2, 270-pound offensive lineman from Decorah High School, accepted a preferred walk-on role with the University of Iowa football program.

Hahn, a first team all-state selection by multiple outlets last year, joins a group that includes fellow former Iowa preps like Royce Heitman and Dylan Stecker as preferred walk-ons for the Hawkeyes.

Over the past several years under Kirk Ferentz, preferred walk-ons have played pivotal roles for the Iowa football program. 

Decorah had a fantastic 2024 season, rushing for 2,165 yards and 24 touchdowns with Hahn part of the offensive line. He also helped the Vikings to almost 1,500 yards passing.

Hahn was a starter along the defensive line, recording 37.5 tackles with 20 being solo stops. He also had two sacks and 7.5 tackles for loss.
