Hutmacher came to Lincoln with an impressive prep résumé, a ton of potential, and a tremendous nickname ("Polar Bear"). As a junior in 2023, Hutmacher had his best season with 40 tackles, eight TFL and 4.5 sacks. He used his brute strength and superior wresting skills (undefeated in high school, qualified for the NCAA Championships in his one season with the Husker wrestling program) to become an immovable object at the line of scrimmage.
He earned honorable-mention All-Big Ten recognition in 2024 despite a knee injury that limited his explosiveness and hampered his productivity.
