IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa’s Lisa Bluder is now the school’s winningest coach. The Hawkeyes (19-6, 7-4 Big Ten) beat Northwestern 90-84 on Monday night to give Bluder her 270th victory at Iowa, surpassing the mark set by C. Vivian Stringer.

Bluder has a record of 270-163 in her 14 seasons with the Hawkeyes. She is one of just 13 active Division I coaches with more than 600 wins. Bluder graduated from Northern Iowa and previously coached at Drake and NAIA school St. Ambrose.
