IOWA CITY, Iowa – Center Josh Ogundele is returning to the University of Iowa men’s basketball team for his junior season.

Six weeks ago, Ogundele (6-foot-11, 265 pounds) entered his name in the transfer portal.

“After exploring my options, I have decided to return to Iowa to continue my growth and development as a basketball player,” said Ogundele. ”I look forward for the opportunity to compete for another Big Ten championship with my teammates.”

“We are excited to have Josh on our roster next season,” said Iowa head coach Fran McCaffery. “Josh has been a good teammate, helping us win 48 games and win a Big Ten Tournament title. He has shown improvement each of the last two years, challenging some of the Big Ten’s top big men.”

In two seasons with the Hawkeyes, the London native saw limited action in 27 games. Ogundele totaled 29 points, 24 rebounds, five blocks, and four steals in 19 games as a sophomore.

With an RPI in the mid 60s the Iowa baseball team has some work to do to boost its NCAA at-large hopes heading into tonight’s (Friday night’s) start of a Big Ten series at Michigan State. The Hawkeyes are tied for third in the league race with a record of 12-6 and coming off the end of exam week.

That’s Iowa coach Rick Heller who says it is a similar situation to last year’s trip to East Lansing.

With two weeks remaining the Hawkeyes are just a game behind Big Ten leading Rutgers in the loss column.

Heller says the Hawkeyes still have a chance to play their way into the NCAA field.

Michigan State is 6-12 in the Big Ten.

The Northern Iowa softball team will play Drake in today’s (Friday’s) semifinals of the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament in Springfield, Missouri. The number 4 Bulldogs defeated number 5 Bradley, 9-to 6 in the third round of the tournament Thursday, and take on UNI at 11-a.m.  As the highest seed in the MVC Softball Championship, the Panthers are facing the Drake Bulldogs for the fourth time this season.

The Valley regular season champions are 31-13 overall but dropped their final game of the regular season.

That’s UNI coach Ryan Jacobs. The Panthers were been forced to wait through two days of competition to find out who their opponent will be.

Jacobs says the coaches have game planned for every team in the league.

The chip is back on the shoulder of former Iowa State linebacker Mike Rose. The native of Ohio was lightly recruited out of high school but became a four year starter at ISU and the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year. His name was not called during last months NFL Draft and he is attempting to make the roster of the Kansas City Chiefs as an undrafted free agent.

Rose says rookie mini-camp was a learning experience for him.

Rose admits it was frustrating not getting drafted.
