Ottosen, IA (Algona)
6’4”, 300 lbs
2019 Projection: Rotational Guard
Entering last season, Banwart figured to be another stalwart along the offensive line which had Alaric Jackson and Tristan Wirfs anchoring the tackle spots and Tyler Linderbaum spearheading at center, where Banwart was also in the mix.
