Iowa Barnstormers News Release
DES MOINES - The Iowa Barnstormers have signed running back AJ Turner to the 2022 roster, Head Coach Dave Mogensen announced today.
Turner (5-10, 190, University of South Carolina) joins the Iowa Barnstormers for his first season with the Indoor Football League (IFL). Collegiately, Turner spent four years at the University of South Carolina appearing in 44 games and collecting 264 rushing attempts for 1,336 yards and eight touchdowns along with 47 receptions for 335 yards and three touchdowns. While his senior season was hindered by a string of small injuries, Turner still managed to earn several honors throughout his time with the Gamecocks including the 2016 Athlon's SEC All-Freshman Second Team and 2017 Most Explosive Player Award on Offense.
"AJ is a tremendous talent," said Head Coach Mogensen. "He started his career at South Carolina with a bang and if not for some nagging injuries he would have been on NFL radars. He will be a dynamic weapon on offense this season."
Turner will join the Iowa Barnstormers 2022 Training Camp in the spring.
Season Tickets for the 2022 Iowa Barnstormers season are available now for as low as $96. For more information, call the Barnstormers front office at 515-633-2255 or visit www.theiowabarnstormers.com.
