Former Hawkeye Micah Hyde returns from injury in Buffalo

Sports

May 31st, 2023 by Ric Hanson

Former Iowa standout Micah Hyde says an injury that forced him to miss nearly all of last season helped give him perspective. The Buffalo Bills safety is preparing for his 11th season in the NFL after being sidelined last year with a week two neck injury.

Hyde says he has not changed how he prepares for the season despite last year’s injury.

Hyde began his career in Green Bay and twice has been named second team All-Pro.

Summer Iowa Games return to normal

Sports

May 31st, 2023 by Ric Hanson

For the first time since 2019 the Summer Iowa Games are returning to normal. The event was forced to deal with the COVID pandemic in 2020 and 2021 and last year was held in conjunction with the delayed State Games of America.

That’s spokesman Cory Kennedy who says the event will be offering more than 40 sports this summer.

Kennedy says they will be returning to a more condensed schedule this year.

Kennedy says the change in the schedule will give the event a more Olympic style feel. Events will be held July seventh through the 16th.

The Opening Ceremonies in Ames will be Friday, July 14th.
