The Iowa Hawkeye baseball team has plenty to play for heading into the final month of the season. At 8-4, the Hawkeyes are tied for fourth in the Big Ten heading into Friday night’s start of a three game series at Nebraska. Iowa coach Rick Heller knows the Huskers will also be motivated. They currently sit in eighth place and only the top eight teams quality for the Big Ten Tournament.

Nebraska is 5-7 in the Big Ten and 17-23 overall.

Heller says the Huskers have battled through some key injuries.
