After only seeing action in three games and redshirting in 2018, redshirt senior Nico Ragaini has established himself as one of Iowa’s best wide receivers.
The 6-foot, 191 pound wide receiver from Notre Dame High School in East Haven, Conn., snagged 26 receptions for 331 yards in 2021. His lone touchdown grab during the 2021 season was a big one. Ragaini hauled in what proved to be the game-winning, 44-yard touchdown reception from quarterback Spencer Petras in the Hawkeyes’ win over then-No. 4 Penn State.
For his career, Ragaini has 91 receptions, 968 receiving yards, three touchdown receptions and one rushing touchdown as well. Ragaini’s best statistical season actually came in his second year on campus. In 2019, Ragaini secured 46 receptions for 439 yards with a pair of touchdown grabs.
Iowa is looking for more production across the board in the passing game in 2022. Ragaini figures to be an important part of whether or not the Hawkeyes succeed or fail in improving offensively.
With plenty of production already in his Iowa career, Ragaini has a chance to deliver more heart-stopping moments in 2022 as he readies for one of the leading roles in the Hawkeyes’ wide receiver corps. Let’s take a look back at some of the incredible moments Ragaini has already brought to Iowa City through these great photos of his Hawkeye career thus far.
