Loras College baseball coach Carl Tebon has known Iowa coach Rick Heller since they coached against each other in the Iowa Conference when Heller was at Upper Iowa. They will go at it again on today (Wednesday) when the Hawkeyes host the Duhawks in Iowa City.

It is the second straight year they have met. Iowa beat Loras 8-1 in their season opener last season and Tebon says the chance to play the Hawkeyes again is an opportunity his players enjoy.

Tebon says the success Iowa has enjoyed makes it ever more of a challenge.

Loras is 10-3 on the season.
