(Atlantic, Iowa) – The Atlantic Parks and Rec Department is hosting a pop-up program of Broomball, this Saturday January 8th, beginning at 1-p.m.  The event takes place on the ice-skating rink at Sunnyside Park.  Parks and Rec Director Bryant Rasmussen explains, Broomball and hockey are quite similar in terms of strategy, but there are a few key differences.

First, broomball players don’t wear skates.  Second, the sport uses a small ball instead of a puck. And instead of hockey sticks, players use brooms. Bring your brooms and learn a new sport.  If you have any questions, please call the Parks & Rec Department at 712-243-3542.

Keegan Murray poured in 35 points and Iowa overcame a 4 point halftime deficit to defeat Maryland 80-75 on Monday night. The Hawkeyes also got 13 points and 8 rebounds from Filip Rebraca as they improved to 11-3 overall and 1-2 in the Big Ten.

Maryland had five players in double figures led by 19 from Eric Ayala but the Hawkeyes outscored the Terrapins 14-5 in fast break points. The Terrapins are now 8-5 overall and 0-2 in the Big Ten.

Next up for the Hawkeyes is a Thursday road trip to face Wisconsin. We’ll have coverage on KJAN with pregame at 7:00 p.m. and tipoff at 8:00 p.m. at the Kohl Center in Madison.

IOWA CITY, Iowa — University of Iowa men’s basketball sophomore Keegan Murray has been named Big Ten Player of the Week, it was announced Monday by the Big Ten Conference Office.

Murray has earned the Big Ten weekly honor three times (Nov. 22; Dec. 20; Jan. 3) this season, including twice in the past three weeks.

Murray (6-foot-8, 225 pounds) posted game bests in points (29), rebounds (10), and blocks (3), while also dishing out three assists in Iowa’s 92-71 win over Western Illinois on Dec. 29, in Iowa City. The native of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, registered his third double-double of the season and shot a blistering 65 percent from the field, making 13-of-20 attempts.

Murray, who is tops in the country in points per game (23.7), has netted 25+ points six times this season.

Iowa (10-3, 0-2) faces Maryland (8-4, 0-1) tonight at 8:07 p.m. (CT) on Mediacom Court at Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City. Tickets are available for purchase at hawkeyesports.com/tickets.

IOWA CITY, Iowa – University of Iowa sophomore Caitlin Clark and freshman Addison O’Grady were named Big Ten Women’s Basketball Player and Freshman of the Week, respectively, the conference announced Monday. Clark shares the Player of the Week honor with Michigan’s Naz Hillmon.

Clark has tallied 25-career Big Ten weekly honors – 13 freshman, seven player and five honor roll. O’Grady earned the first Big Ten honor of her career this week.

Clark, a Des Moines, Iowa, native registered a career-high 44 points in the Hawkeyes’ win over Evansville on Sunday, breaking the Carver-Hawkeye Arena record that had stood for nearly 22 years. Former Hawkeye Amy Harrig previously held the record, scoring 42 points against Northwestern on Feb. 14, 1999. Clark added to her stat line, dishing eight assists, pulling down five rebounds and tallying two steals on the day.

With 5:04 left in the first quarter, Clark broke the 1,000-career point barrier, becoming the fastest Big Ten women’s basketball athlete and the eighth NCAA athlete to meet the mile marker in 40 games or less. Ohio State’s Kelsey Mitchell previously held the record with 1,000 in 41 games during the 2016-17 season. Clark is only the second NCAA athlete in the last 25 years to tally 1,000 points in 40 games or less — Delaware’s Elena Delle Donne did it in 38 games (2011-12).

O’Grady earns her first Big Ten weekly honor after registering her first career double-double in the Hawkeyes’ win. The Aurora, Colorado, native tallied season-best points (14) and rebounds (12), shot 70 percent from the field and blocked two shots.

Clark, O’Grady and the Hawkeyes return to action Thursday, Jan. 6 in a home matchup against Northwestern inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Tip is set for 7 p.m. (CT) on B1G Network.
