Per Eliot Cough of Hawkeye Beacon, the Hawkeyes welcomed Florida International transfer guard Ashton Williamson.
The 6-foot-2, 170-pound guard averaged 7.3 points, 2.7 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game in 33 games with 16 starts. Williamson shot 39.4% from the field, 32.9% from 3-point range and 67.6% from the free-throw line.
A native of Gary, Indiana, Williamson scored in double figures 10 times last season, including a season-high 14 points against Middle Tennessee on March 8.
Williamson was a three-star signee in FIU's 2024 class and ranked as the No. 52 combo guard and as the No. 8 player from Indiana.
