Iowa special teams coordinator LeVar Woods is leaving to join Pat Fitzgerald’s staff at Michigan State. Woods has been part of the Hawkeye coaching staff since 2008. He played for Kirk Ferentz and Hayden Fry before embarking on an NFL career. Woods will serve as assistant head coach and special teams coordinator with the Spartans.

Woods would like to become a head coach and feels this is the next step on that path.

Woods says it was a difficult decision to leave.

Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz says Woods will remain on the Iowa staff through the end of the ReliaQuest Bowl against Vanderbilt on New Years Eve.

Ferentz says Woods has been a big part of the success of the program.

Ferentz says the goal in filling the position will be to find the next LeVar Woods.

The 11th ranked Iowa Hawkeye women will be a substantial underdog on Saturday when they play top ranked UConn in the Barclay’s Center in Brooklyn. It is part of the Shark Beauty Women’s Champions Classic. UConn is 11-0 following Wednesday night’s 89-53 win over Marquette.

That’s Iowa coach Jan Jensen, who says UConn has overwhelming talent and depth.

Jensen says one bad stretch against UConn can turn a game into a rout.

Jensen says the Hawkeyes will need a complete effort to have a chance.

Iowa men’s basketball coach Ben McCollum hopes to play games in Des Moines in future seasons but hopefully against power five foes. The Hawkeyes play Bucknell Saturday afternoon in the Casey’s Center. The original opponent was supposed to be Saint Louis University.

McCollum is good friends with Saint Louis coach Josh Schertz.

McCollum says there have been no major surprises in the Hawkeyes’ 9-2 start to the season but he has been happy with the progress.

Bucknell enters the game with a record of 3-9. It will be a five o’clock tip-off in the Casey’s Center on Saturday.

From Oakland Iowa, to just across the Hudson River from New York City, Riverside Volleyball graduating Senior Bentley Rome has signed her letter of intent to continue her volleyball career at Felician University in Rutherford, New Jersey. Rone, a three-year starter for the Bulldogs says she has always had the aspiration to move to the East Coast and realized this was her chance.

Rone checked out other schools in the area, but nothing felt like home the way Felician did.

Felician is an NCAA Division II program and Rone says Riverside has really prepared her for the next level.

From an academic standpoint, Rone plans to go into marketing with a focus on sports marketing.

IOWA CITY, Iowa — University of Iowa football players – graduate center Logan Jones and graduate return specialist Kaden Wetjen — were honored Thursday as first-team All-Americans by the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA).

Since 1945, the FWAA has been one of five outlets recognized by the NCAA to determine consensus All-Americans (Walter Camp, Associated Press, Sporting News, American Football Coaches of America).

• The Hawkeyes have had a FWAA All-American (first or second team) 13 straight seasons, dating back to 2013, the second-longest active streak in the country (Alabama, 18). During that streak, a Hawkeye earned first-team honors 18 times and second-team laurels five times.
• Iowa has had 10 FWAA All-Americans the last four seasons combined, second only to Ohio State (11). All 10 of those Hawkeye All-Americans have been on the first team.
• The Hawkeyes have had a special teams All-American five of the last seven seasons.
• Iowa has had multiple FWAA All-Americans each of the last seven seasons (2019-25) and eight of the last nine.

Jones has received first team distinction from Walter Camp, AP, AFCA, The Sporting News and FWAA. He is the recipient of the 2025 Rimington Trophy, given to the nation’s top collegiate center, and is a first-team All-Big Ten honoree. Jones anchors Iowa’s offensive line, which is a Joe Moore Award finalist. He has started 50 career games and has served as a game captain all 12 games this season. The native of Council Bluffs, Iowa, is the top-rated center in the country by Pro Football Focus and has not been flagged for an offensive holding penalty in 2025. Jones’ protection, along with the rest of the line, has helped quarterback Mark Gronowski break school single-season records for rushing yards (491) and rushing touchdowns (15) by a quarterback.

Jones and the Hawkeyes have out-rushed their opponents nine times in 2025, compiling 245 yards in the victory over Penn State on Oct. 18 and rushing for 310 yards in the season-opening win over UAlbany. The unit helped Iowa gain more than 200 yards in five games and the line surrendered just 16 sacks. Jones was the Outland Trophy National Player of the Week on the weekend of Oct. 25 following Iowa’s 41-3 convincing victory over Minnesota.

Wetjen was previously honored as a first-team All-American by Walter Camp and The Sporting News and a second-team selection by the AFCA. Wetjen is the first two-time recipient of the Big Ten Rodgers-Dwight Return Specialist of the Year Award. He also earned first-team all-conference accolades by both the coaches and media.

Wetjen, who is a Jet Award finalist, leads the nation with 965 combined kick return yards (by 260 yards), while also ranking first in punt return yards (28.3). The Williamsburg, Iowa, native was a three-time Big Ten Special Teams Player of the Week in 2025. He is the only Big Ten player to record at least three punt returns and one kickoff return for a score in the same season. Wetjen returned a 100-yard kickoff for a touchdown at Rutgers, and had punt return scores of 95 yards (UMass), 62 yards (Michigan State) and 50 yards (Minnesota) this season. His 28.3 career punt return average is currently tops in Big Ten history and the three punt return scores are tied for third-most in a single season in league annals.

No. 23 Iowa will face No. 14 Vanderbilt in the ReliaQuest Bowl on Dec. 31 at 11 a.m. (CT), in Tampa, Florida. Fans can book travel packages to Tampa through Destinations Unlimited.

The Drake women, Wednesday, outscored Indiana State 34-12 in the third quarter and opened Missouri Valley Conference play with a 97-77 win at Indiana State as the Bulldogs snapped an eight game losing skid.

That’s Bulldog coach Allison Pohlman. Drake shot better than 50 percent for the game and only had 10 turnovers against the Indiana State press.
