UNI’s do-everything 6-8 glue guy is making winning plays all over the floor
In the 2025-26 season, Ben Schwieger has emerged as a versatile redshirt senior for UNI, starting 21 of 36 games and averaging 9.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, one steal, and 0.5 blocks while playing 27.7 minutes per game. His appeal goes beyond the box score: he brings length, toughness, defensive activity, and real multi-positional flexibility at guard/forward, plus a steady, team-first edge that coaches love. If your team needs a smart, physical connector who can defend, rebound, and make timely plays without needing the ball fed to him every trip, he’s your kind of guy.
