(Radio Iowa) – The Iowa Natural Resources Commission has approved the rules to increase the cost of the lifetime fishing license. Fisheries Bureau Chief, Joe Larschied, says the change come after they heard public input. “A total of 310 comments were received during the public comment period. The comments suggested fees ranging from zero to 200 dollars. The vast majority of comments suggested a total fee of 65 dollars or more,” he says.

He says following the comments the initial proposal to raise the fee to 65 dollars was lowered to 63 dollars. “The 63 dollar license fee — along with the existing two-dollar administrative fee — results in a 65 total, which is the amount supported by the vast majority public comments,” according to Larscheid. A lifetime license for those over the age of 65 now costs 61-dollars, 50 cents. The new fee begins in January.

Hawkins finished with 16 points, 11 rebounds, and 3 assists to help the Bluejays rally from a nine point halftime deficit to a 90-77 opening win over Arkansas-Pine Bluff.

Hawkins started and logged 34 minutes in his first game with the Bluejays. He joined the squad this past spring after entering the NCAA transfer portal and taking advantage of his extra year of eligibility due to the pandemic. Hawkins decided to leave Northwest Missouri State after helping them to another championship in the spring of 2021.

Next up for the Bluejays is a home game against Kennesaw State on Thursday at 7:30 p.m.

New Iowa State Head Men’s Basketball Coach TJ Otzelberger opened up his tenure with an 84-73 win over Kennesaw State on Tuesday night at Hilton Coliseum. The Cyclones led by 8 at the intermission and built the lead to as much as 17 in the second half. The Owls didn’t go quietly away though. chipping the lead to 6 multiple times down the stretch but Iowa State finished strong for the win.

Gabe Kalscheur finished as the Cyclones scoring leader with 19 on the night. Izaiah Brockington finished with 18 points and rebounds. Freshman guard Tyrese Hunter notched 11 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, and 4 steals.

Kennesaw State was led by 21 points from junior guard Terrell Burden and Chris Youngblood added 16. The Owls now travel to Omaha to face Creighton on Thursday.

Next up for Iowa State is a home game against Oregon State on Friday at 7:00 p.m.

The Iowa Hawkeyes defeated the New Hampshire Wildcats in their season opener at Carver-Hawkeye Arena, 93-50. Iowa has not lost a home opener since, Head Coach Lisa Bluder took over during the 2000-01 season.

Sophomore Caitlin Clark tallied 17 points in the first half and ended the game with 26 to lead the Hawkeyes, making 11-of-11 free throws – the best free-throw percentage (10 or more attempts) since former Hawkeye Megan Gustafson shot 10-for-10 at Illinois (Jan. 7, 2018).

Four Hawkeyes scored in double figures, including Clark (26), senior Monika Czinano (14), junior McKenna Warnock (12), and senior Tomi Taiwo (10).

The 8-Player football semifinals will kick off with a Nishna Valley flair on Wednesday morning at the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls. The CAM Cougars (11-0) will square off against the Audubon Wheelers (10-1) in the first semifinal game of the season at the dome. It’s a rematch of a regular season tilt that CAM came out on top of 58-42 back on September 24th. That win allowed the Cougars to come away with the District 10 championship. This time a trip to the state championship is on the line. CAM Head Coach Barry Bower said it will be a lot of fun to have another big game against the Wheelers.

Audubon Head Coach Sean Birks said they expect another hard fought game. He said both teams have a ton of respect for each other and it will make for a great atmosphere.

Both teams like to rely on the ground game. CAM senior Lane Spieker is in the midst of the greatest single season rushing output in Iowa 8-Player football history with 2,951 yards and counting. Spieker also, during the quarterfinal win over Newell-Fonda, passed the all-time mark for touchdowns (rush, receive, and return) in a season at any level with 65. That’s not to mention his 11 passing touchdowns on the season. Audubon Head Coach Sean Birks said they will obviously need to slow Spieker down a bit.

The Wheelers have been solid in the run game too with senior Gavin Smith leading the charge with 2,074 yards rushing with 43 touchdowns. The quarterback has also added 995 yards and 13 scores through the air. Coach Bower thinks both teams have improved greatly and the Cougars will need to play their assignments well.

The Wheelers are back to the dome for the second time in three years. In 2019 the Wheelers made it all the way to the title game and finished as runners-up to Don Bosco. CAM is playing in the dome for the first time in school history. After coming up short in the quarterfinals the past two years, the Cougars were able to get over the hump this season.

We’ll have all the action on KJAN with pregame at 9:00 a.m. and kickoff at 10:00 a.m. at the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls. Chris Parks and Mike Smith will have the call on AM 1220, FM 101.1, and audio online at KJAN.com
