Conrad Hawley is Iowa State’s energy-and-culture forward, not a box-score producer
In the 2024-25 season, Hawley’s on-court role was extremely limited, and he missed time after left shoulder surgery following the opener; however, Iowa State and media coverage consistently frame him as a high-intensity walk-on whose value comes from effort, leadership, and contagious sideline energy rather than stats. He’s best understood as a culture fit: a 6'5" senior forward who embraces his role, brings toughness and positivity, and has become a fan-favorite for intangibles that translate to locker-room impact more than scoring punch.
