Iowa State softball rolls past Drake

Sports

May 5th, 2022 by admin

DES MOINES, Iowa – Karlie Charles pitched a one-hit shutout as Iowa State (25-25, 4-11 Big 12) won its final midweek contest of the season, 9-0, against Drake (18-26, 12-11 MVC) in five innings Wednesday evening.

ISU has now won three in a row and four of its last five games.

Charles (8-5) struck out five and walked none in a dominant showing. The junior increased her season strikeout-to-walk ratio to 6.4:1 (64 K, 10 BB), the 20th-best mark in the country.

Angelina Allen logged a career-best four RBIs as part of a 2-for-2 night at the plate. The freshman hit her fourth home run of the season in her first at-bat of the game and drew a pair of walks. Kasey Simpson tied her season high with three RBIs on two hits while Kali Gose (2-of-3, 1 R) also added a multi-hit effort.

The Cyclones started fast with two home runs in the top of the first inning, one each from Allen and Simpson, to jump out to a 3-0 advantage.

Back-to-back singles from Gose and Skyler Ramos, followed by a walk from Kaylee Pond, loaded the bases with no outs for ISU in the second. The Cyclones were only able to muster a run from the threat, however, on a bases-loaded walk by Allen.

Iowa State stretched its lead to 7-0 with a three-run fourth inning, highlighted by a sac-fly from Mikayla Ramos and RBI doubles from Alesia Ranches and Simpson. Allen would add the Cyclones’ final two runs of the night in the fifth inning on a bloop single over the shortstop’s head.

Up Next
Iowa State will play its final home games of the season this weekend as it hosts Kansas in a three-game set. First pitch in the series opener is slated for Friday at 4 p.m.

Four ISU players set to compete in USA Basketball 3X Nationals

Sports

May 5th, 2022 by admin

AMES, Iowa – Four Cyclones are set to compete in the 2022 Red Bull USA Basketball 3X Nationals, which is held at the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass. The event will take place from May 13-15, featuring 16 men’s and 16 women’s basketball teams along with some of the best 3×3 players in the country.

Iowa State’s Lexi Donarski, Nyamer Diew, Ashley Joens and Emily Ryan will represent the Cyclones in the 3×3 competition. The Cyclones earned their invitation based off their appearance in the NCAA Sweet 16.

“Our players are really looking forward to competing in the 3×3 competition this year,” head coach Bill Fennelly said. “It is a fun event and gives them another chance to represent Iowa State on a national stage.”

The 3X Nationals will tip off May 13 with preliminary round games. Teams will be seeded based on preliminary records before entering bracket play. Games will be played on the Hall of Fame’s Jerry Colangelo Court of Dreams, located in the heart of the Museum. The event is open to the public with purchase of admission to the Hall of Fame. Broadcast information, team rosters and the full schedule will be announced at a later date.

The event will serve as the final evaluation of athletes for selection to various 2022 USA Basketball 3×3 men’s and women’s national teams, including the 2022 FIBA 3×3 World Cup, set for June 21-26 in Antwerp, Belgium.

Played on a half court with a 10-minute clock and a 12-second shot clock, the first team to 21 points, or the team in the lead at the end of regulation, is the winner. Participating teams earned their spots in the 2022 Red Bull USA Basketball 3X Nationals either through Red Bull USA Basketball 3X regional qualifying tournaments last fall or via an at-large invitation from USA Basketball.

Iowa law regulating sports agents to change July 1

News, Sports

May 5th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – There will soon be a change in state restrictions on sports agents. For nearly a year, college athletes have been able to profit from the use of their name, image or likeness in commercials, on clothing or used in other ways. N-C-Double-A rules let them hire an agent to strike those deals. Senator Craig Johnson of Independence says the new state law will ensure agents don’t exploit Iowa college athletes.

Representative Anne Osmundson of Volga says the new Iowa law will align with how other states are regulating agents.

The House unanimously voted to make this move a year ago and the Iowa Senate took a final vote on the bill in March. The law takes effect on July 1st.

B1G baseball hopes normal schedule will improve NCAA outlook

Sports

May 5th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

Iowa baseball coach Rick Heller hopes a normal schedule with a full non-conference slate will help Big Ten teams when it comes to NCAA selection time. A year ago, the Big Ten played a conference-only schedule and it was costly. Only conference champ Nebraska and runner-up Maryland made the field of 64.

And it stopped the momentum Big Ten baseball had prior to COVID. Four teams made the NCAA Tournament in 2019 and Michigan made it all the way to the College World Series championship.

The Hawkeyes are 26-15 overall and currently fourth in the Big Ten. They host Purdue in a three game series this weekend.

Redbirds clip Iowa, 3-2

Sports

May 4th, 2022 by admin

IOWA CITY, Iowa – Illinois State scored an unearned run in the top of the seventh inning, sending it to a 3-2 victory over the University of Iowa baseball team on Tuesday night at Duane Banks Field.

The loss drops the Hawkeyes’ record to 26-15 overall heading into a three-game weekend series against Purdue.

With the score tied at two in the seventh, freshman Brody Brecht got two quick outs before issuing a walk to extend the inning.  Illinois State’s JT Sokolove followed with an infield single on a softly hit ball to shortstop, and Michael Seegers errant throw scooted past Peyton Williams down the right field line, allowing Kayden Beauregard to score from first.

The Hawkeyes had traffic in the seventh courtesy of a Brett McCleary leadoff single, had runners on the corners with one out via a Keaton Anthony walk and Ben Wilmes single in the eighth and a Kyle Huckstorf hit by pitch in the ninth, but couldn’t come up with the big hit.

It was the story of the game as the Hawkeyes finished with just four hits against six Redbird pitchers.  Kubiatowicz allowed one hit and fanned six over 3 1/3 innings to earn the victory.

UP NEXT

The Hawkeyes will host Purdue for a three-game series from Friday through Sunday at Duane Banks Field.  Start times for Friday and Saturday’s games have been changed to 4:05 p.m. (CT) and 11 a.m., respectively.

May 4th, 2022 by admin

The Kansas City Royals erupted for 5 runs in the 7th inning and picked up a 7-1 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday night. It was a 2-0 game before the 5-run 7th and the Cardinals got their lone run in the 8th.

The Royals pounded out 15 hits on the night, led by a 4-hit game from lead-off man Edward Olivares. He also scored a run and had an RBI. Bobby Witt Jr. had 2 hits, 2 runs, 1 RBI, and a walk.

Dakota Hudson got tagged with 9 hits and 3 earned runs in the Cardinals loss. The Cardinals fall to 13-10 on the season and the Royals improved to 8-14.

The Royals and Cardinals will finish out their set today with a game that has been moved up due to rain threat later in Kansas City. We’ll have coverage on KJAN with pregame starting at 11:15 a.m. and first pitch at 12:10 p.m.
