    Women's 200m run

    And beyond the 3rd place finish, she interviewed so well. A great runner, but an even better person. She made all Hawkeye fans proud of her and happy to claim her as an alum.

    USA Olympic women's 3 on 3 basketball

    Watching the USA women's Olympic 3 on 3 basketball game last night, featuring Hailey Van Lith at point guard, i had to wonder why she is in that role. Clark ate her lunch both when Van Lith played for Louisville, and again when she played for the worst dresser in sports history at LSU this...

    Column: Caitlin Clark Pro Show Still A Mystery

    Reading the Summer edition of the "IOWA Magazine", (pages 18 & 19), it had a brief write up about all of the 19 athletes with U of Iowa ties who are Paris Olympics bound. dagdaj wrote above that he'd watch Iowans in the Olympics, like Artur Wojdat, the Iowa swimmer who swam for his native...

    Worst call by an umpire since Don Denkinger's World Series missed call (worse actually!)

    Took a late lunch hour so i could catch the end of the Iowa-ILL Annoy losers bracket game. ILL Annoy scored 2 in the top of the 11th, so that Hawks needed to at least tie it up or go home. Lead off double, a single and a walk load the bases with no one out. Next batter hits a slow roller to...

    Iowa Must Win B1G Tournament for NCAA Bid

    Go ahead run thrown out at the plate in the top of the final inning, followed by walking in the winning run in the bottom half. OUCH! And now, thanks to ILL Annoy getting beat in the first round, the Hawks get to play the #1 seed in their losers' bracket game. Double OUCH! Play like...

    Iowa State New Wrestling Facility ON HOLD.

    The overall discussion has been focused on Carver Hawkeye Arena. My take is that was what was being referenced by "backwards Hawkeye" in the post above.

    Iowa reportedly in contact with Arkansas transfer F Maryam Dauda

    A quick search shows Maryland and USC are very interested in landing Dauda. Cannot see the Iowa staff forcing Ava Jones to go medical and forego ever playing at Iowa. They really are like a family, and family doesn't do that to a family member, no matter what. Wish we knew how much Swarm $$...

    Iowa reportedly in contact with Arkansas transfer F Maryam Dauda

    At 6'4" Maryam Dauda would add needed depth at the 4 and 5 spots. But, unless i misunderstand the status of the current roster, aren't all the scholarships committed to current and incoming players?

    uh, quarter century, actually. But point made.

    Bigger B1G Releases Men's Basketball Matchups for '24-25

    Iowa men’s basketball averaged 5,742 fans per game over the course of the 2023-24 season, according to tickets scanned data obtained by The Gazette via a public records request. Iowa women’s basketball nearly doubled that, averaging 10,779 tickets scanned per game in the regular season. That...

    Former shot put world record holder All Feuerbach is Kylie Feuerbach's uncle

    It's the off season for the Iowa women, so here's a bit of trivia just shared with me in an email from a classmate at Iowa a very long time ago. This is a copy and paste from his email: "I just found out from my former fellow teacher at Preston, Iowa, that Kylie Feuerbach of the Iowa...

    What is the future of NCAA women's wrestling?

    The latest story in the CR Gazette today about the outstanding success the champion Iowa women's wrestling team has had makes one wonder about the future of NCAA women's wrestling Apparently there are 3 D-1 women's wrestling teams right now. Are other D-1 universities adding women's wrestling...

    Caitlin's Nike Deal

    Couldn't be happier for CC. No one deserves it more than she does. As a complete aside, how much of a markup on hers and other shoes and products must there be by Nike in order to turn a profit? Clark's $28M is but one of many athletes with whom they have mega-bucks contracts, plus the money...

    Total Bush league

    Couldn't agree with you more! This move it completely wrong. Still ticks me off that Pete Carroll scurried out of USC before he could be punished, and instead became a multi-millionaire with Seattle, which accepted him, warts and all. To a lesser degree, while the Gander staff left behind...

    Boom - Deacon Hill

    Totally agree that Hill played far too much last season without giving a backup playing time, and a chance to win the starting spot. With that said, and Hill fortunately "over the hill", a doff of the cap to how KF handled the transfer announcement. After the final practice, KF commented about...
