Price chose the preferred walk-on opportunity at Iowa over scholarship offers from Army, Air Force, North Dakota State, Northern Iowa, and Dartmouth, among others.
“I’ve always grown up a Hawkeye fan and the coaching staff believes in me,” said Price. “It will be an uphill battle, but it’s just one day after another of hard work and just believing in yourself.”
