AMES, Iowa – Iowa State redshirt sophomore Rocco Becht has helped lead the Cyclones to a No. 11 ranking and a 5-0 start for the first time since 1980. On Monday, his efforts were recognized when he earned a spot on The Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award Top 25.

Becht, a Wesley Chapel, Florida, native, has completed a career-best 65.9 percent of his passes and has nine touchdown passes in the season’s first five games. He is averaging 234.6 yards per game and has connected on seven passes of at least 30 yards.

Becht has thrown 32 touchdown passes in his career and recently became the 10th player in school history to eclipse 4,000 passing yards. He has 4,358 passing yards in his career, ranking eighth all-time at ISU.
