“I am incredibly sad to hear about Cody Ince’s sudden passing,” Iowa Hawkeyes head football coach Kirk Ferentz said in a statement Tuesday morning. “Cody was a tremendous young man, valued teammate, and contributor to our program. He loved football, fishing and hunting, and believed in the importance of family and friendships. Cody was just beginning this next chapter of his life and was about to be married. Mary and I are heartbroken for his fiancée, his family and all his friends who knew and loved him. All of us in the football program – his coaches and teammates – are mourning his loss.”
The Wisconsin-native was an Academic All-Big Ten honoree, earning recognition on the spring semester dean’s list in 2021.
A visitation is planned for July 23 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., with a Celebration of Life to follow at BrowTine Event Center in Amery, Wisconsin.
