(Radio Iowa) – Big things are expected from junior center Monica Czinano for a young Iowa women’s basketball team this season. Czinano finished second in the nation in field goal percentage last season at 68 percent in being named All-Big Ten. She spent the off season trying to improve her foot work and rebounding.

Czinano spent much of last season plagued by foul trouble and she is hoping to limit that this season.

The addition of six-three freshman Sharon Goodman will provide more depth in the post this season when foul trouble occurs.

The Hawkeyes open at home on Wednesday night against Northern Iowa.
