Sports

November 7th, 2021 by admin

The Drake Bulldogs dropped a 7-0 game at Marist on Saturday in Poughkeepsie, NY. The Red Foxes got the only score of the game in the third quarter on a 10 yard pass from Austin Day to Hunter Cobb.

Both teams missed field goal chances and the Bulldogs had one attempt blocked in the third quarter. The defenses dominated much of the game and the Red Foxes had just a slight advantage in total yardage and time of possession.

The Bulldogs were playing for the first time in three weeks following a COVID-19 outbreak and a bye week. The Bulldogs fell to 2-6 overall and 1-4 in the PFL. Next up for Drake is a home game against PFL newcomer St. Thomas for a 12:00 p.m. kickoff next Saturday.

November 7th, 2021 by admin

UNI fell behind 10-0 but rallied in the fourth quarter to tie the game against Illinois State and send it to overtime. The Redbirds hit on their first overtime possession with a 27-yard touchdown pass from Jackson Waring to Austing Nagel. UNI had their possession end with a pass that fell short of Bradrick Shaw for an incompletion that ended the game.

UNI looked like they were going to have a chance to win the game in regulation. Deion McShane returned a punt 69-yards to the Redbirds’ 1 yard line with just over a minute to play, but it was called back on a block-in-the-back penalty.

UNI outgained Illinios State 315-164 but a number of mistakes cost the Panthers scoring chances. Isaiah Weston was a bright spot once again with 142 yards receiving, he leads the FCS in yards per reception at 25.38.

The Panthers fell to 5-4 overall and 3-3 in the Valley. Next up for UNI is a road trip to No. 17 Missouri State for a 2:00 p.m. kickoff on ESPN+

Tarique Milton caught a 49-yard score from wideout Xavier Hutchinson on a trick play mid third quarter. Hall added another rushing score and Andrew Mevis kicked two field goals in the fourth to seal it.

Hawkeyes dismiss Brown from Volleyball post

Sports

November 5th, 2021 by admin

IOWA CITY, Iowa — University of Iowa Henry B. and Patricia B. Tippie Director of Athletics Chair Gary Barta announced on Thursday that Vicki Brown has been terminated, without cause, as head coach of the UI volleyball program. A national search for a new head coach will begin immediately.

“We appreciate Coach Brown’s five years of service with our volleyball program, especially during a difficult transition prior to the 2019 season and the challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Barta. “We wish her the best of luck moving forward.”

Brown was named Iowa’s 10th head coach in program history in September, 2019. She first joined the Hawkeyes in 2017 as associate head coach, followed by three months as the team’s interim head coach. A native of Toledo, Ohio, Brown compiled a 17-56 overall record in two-plus seasons, including winning 10 matches her first season in 2019. Brown played collegiately at the University of Illinois from 2004-07.

Iowa assistant coaches Dave Brown and William Tatge will oversee the volleyball program on an interim basis. Brown, who also serves at the team’s recruiting coordinator, is in his second season with the Hawkeyes after serving as the associate head coach and recruiting coordinator at Loyola Chicago from 2018-19. Tatge joined the staff in June, 2021, after serving as an assistant coach at Louisiana Tech the previous two seasons.

The Hawkeyes have eight matches remaining in the 2021 season.
