Tyrese Hunter enters the transfer portal

Sports

April 18th, 2022 by admin

Iowa State starting point guard Tyrese Hunter has entered the transfer portal. The 6 footer from Wisconsin averaged 11 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.9 assists, and 2.0 steals in a standout freshman season for the Cyclones.

Hunter was a key cog in the Cyclones big turnaround season that ended with a trip to the Sweet 16 in the NCAA Tournament. Hunter originally committed to Iowa State under Steve Prohm and reaffirmed his commitment after the hire of TJ Otzelberger.

Hunter was named Big 12 Freshman of the Year following his breakout season. Putting his name in the portal doesn’t totally remove the possibility of coming back to Iowa State but likely signals a change after rumors had swirled the past couple of weeks.

IOWA CITY, Iowa – An eight-run seventh inning sent the University of Iowa baseball team to a 9-3 victory and series sweep of Minnesota on Sunday afternoon at Duane Banks Field.  It is the Hawkeyes’ second straight sweep of the Gophers.

“Getting a sweep is big, especially at home,” said redshirt sophomore Will Mulflur. “It is good momentum for everyone on the team, especially going into a tough one on the road next week. We have to take care business during the midweek, too, against Bradley.

“It was a good confidence booster with everybody. The pitchers coming out and throwing strikes, always giving us a chance, the offense coming through. It felt like we were able to be who we are this weekend and it worked out.”

The win is Iowa’s 20th of the season, moving the team’s record to 20-12 overall and 6-3 in Big Ten play.

UP NEXT

The Hawkeyes will host Bradley on Tuesday at 6:05 p.m. (CT) at Duane Banks Field.

Iowa State football coach Matt Campbell feels his team had a productive spring. The Cyclones lost several key players from last year’s team that opened in the top ten before stumbling to a 7-6 record. The close drills with an open practice at Gilbert High School.

The expectations won’t be as high for a team that is a mix of veterans and newcomers.

That includes at quarterback where Hunter Dekkers takes over for four year starter Brock Purdy. Campbell says they tried to put the former West Sioux star in some challenging spots.

Campbell says the key for Dekkers will be handling the adversity that comes with playing quarterback.

The Cyclones open next season on September third at home against Southeast Missouri.
