Alyssa recovered nicely from an uncharacteristic round at Kuemper last night where one hole spoiled her game. That shows the type of competitor she is. Anna, Hannah, Lauren, & Belle keep bringing their scores down too. That is important to the continued success of our team.

Atlantic Head Coach Ed Den Beste: “Temps were good in Shenandoah today. Wind was a little strong and the greens were fast. We had several that took many holes to get used to greens. Matt had a great front. Shot one over. Then started the back with a triple and went on the boggy run until the last few holes with pars. Cyle was two over on the front and also went on a boggy run on the back. Had 7 holes that he couldn’t get thing going. Braden played pretty consistent today. Good round for him. Drey started rough with a triple and a double two holes later. However, he rallied and had a good score of 83. Tate was playing pretty well. Hole 7 he lost a ball and lost some focus. He parred the next but then took an 8 on 9 and a triple on 10. Still worked to finish in the 90s. Garrett had never see the course so he was learning as he played. Had some good holes and parred his last which was good to see. it is one of the toughest holes on the course.”

NEW YORK — University of Iowa senior Megan Gustafson has been invited to attend the 2019 WNBA Draft on Wednesday, April 10, the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) announced the invitational-only guest list Tuesday.

ESPN2 will cover the first round live at the Nike NYC Headquarters at 6 p.m. (CT), while the second and third rounds will air on ESPNU. The app will also stream live on the ESPN app.

Joining Gustafson are the draft are Kristine Anigwe (Cal), Kalani Brown (Baylor), Napheesa Collier (UConn), Sophie Cunningham (Missouri), Asia Durr (Louisville), Teaira McCowan (Mississippi State), Arike Ogunbowale (Notre Dame), Katie Lou Samuelson (UConn), Alanna Smith (Stanford), Han Xu (China), and Jackie Young (Notre Dame).

Twelve Hawkeyes have been selected in the WNBA Draft in program history. Gustafson looks to become the first Hawkeye to be drafted since Sam Logic was picked by the Atlanta Dream as the 10th overall pick in 2015.

Gustafson, the first consensus national player of the year in Big Ten history, ended her career as the most decorated Hawkeye in program history. The Port Wing, Wisconsin, native owns 16 Iowa records, including career marks for points (2,804) and rebounds (1,460).

In 2018-19, Gustafson became just the fourth Division I female student-athlete and the only post player to eclipse 1,000 points in a single season. She is the only women’s player in Division I history to average 27.8 or more points, 13.3 or more rebounds, and shoot 69.6 percent or better from the field. Her 33 double-doubles during her senior campaign are an NCAA Record. Gustafson’s 88 career double-doubles rank fourth all-time, her 65.7 career field goal percentage ranks fifth nationally, and her 1,459 career rebounds ranks 14th. The field goal percentage and rebounds are also Big Ten Conference records.

Gustafson is chronicling her path from the end of her college her career to the start of her WNBA career through an AP Draft Diary. To follow along, click here.

15 year prison sentence in Audubon County drug running case

News

April 9th, 2019 by Ric Hanson

Audubon County Attorney Sarah A. Jennings reports Zackary Scott was sentenced Monday to 15 years in prison, for Possession of a Controlled Substance with Intent to Deliver Methamphetamine (a Class C Felony), and Possession of a Controlled Substance with Intent to Deliver Marijuana (a Class D Felony), after having his probation revoked for another drug violation. He received a ten-year sentence on the Class C and a five-year sentence on the Class D, with the two running consecutive to each other for a total prison term not to exceed 15 years.

Zackary Scott

Scott was caught running meth and marijuana in Audubon County in August of 2018. Because he had a drug addiction of his own and only a moderate criminal history, the county attorney allowed him to be placed on probation so he could seek help for his problem. In a quid pro quo, a 15-year suspended prison sentence was hung over his head, to be imposed if he did not comply with the terms of his probation. He pleaded guilty and was placed on probation on November 14, 2018.

Just one day later, Zackary Scott was arrested for possession of marijuana in another county. Because the county attorney believed Scott had abused the generous deal he had received, the State joined with the Department of Probation in recommending that his probation be revoked and his original sentence imposed. Scott had already been given suspended prison sentences in 2015 on two other felony convictions in other counties, so this violation was his “third strike.” Judge Craig Dreismeier revoked Mr. Scott’s probation and imposed the original prison sentence yesterday in court with mittimus to issue immediately. The judge’s order also states that the defendant is to receive drug treatment while incarcerated.
