University of Iowa discrimination case goes to jury

Sports

May 3rd, 2017 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Jury deliberations have begun to decide a discrimination lawsuit filed by a former top athletics administrator against the University of Iowa.

Attorneys gave closing statements Wednesday in the lawsuit filed by Jane Meyer, a Hawkeyes administrator for over a decade. She filed the suit after being transferred to another department after the firing of Iowa field hockey coach Tracey Griesbaum, her partner. Meyer’s job was eliminated in 2016.

Meyer alleges she suffered workplace discrimination as a gay woman in a relationship with a coach, that the school retaliated against her and that she was paid less than a male counterpart for similar work.

The eight-person jury, made up of five women and three men, heard 13 days of testimony that included football coach Kirk Ferentz and wrestling coach Tom Brands.

10.  Ciara Burnison, Shenandoah – 90
11.  Ashton Carter, Creston – 91
12.  McKenna Ludwig, Kuemper – 92

Atlantic Head Coach Kathy Hobson: “This was a great team victory for us as we head into our tournament season leading up to regionals.  McKenna played the front lights out, shooting a 40; she finished with an 89 – very proud of her.  Brooke sank a 25′ putt on #17 for birdie.  She played even on the back 9.  Alyssa and Baylee were steady all day.

As we move forward, our short game still needs improvement.  We need to continue to improve on our chipping and approach shots to the green.  We don’t give ourselves good opportunities on our first putts to make them.

Big outing in Sioux City Wednesday – should be very competitive.  Also good for us to go back to back days with 18 hole tournaments.”

Cyle also great to see him shoot 75.  Zac had a better score today than last week.  Good to see him come back and Nate played his normal score.  Great to see this team continue on their great year.  Hopefully we can continue this into the weekend and Hawkeye 10.”
