Iowa’s Jan Jensen on the injury to Taylor McCabe

Sports

January 27th, 2026 by Ric Hanson

Iowa women’s coach Jan Jensen says freshman Addie Deal will start on Thursday night when the eighth ranked Hawkeyes visit USC. Senior guard Taylor McCabe was lost for the season after suffering an ACL injury in Sunday’s win over 12th ranked Ohio State.

McCabe was averaging nearly nine points per game and also was one of the Hawkeye’s top defenders.

Deal scored 20 points against Ohio State and was named Big Ten freshman of the week. Jensen says she and reserve Taylor Stremlow will be counted on for larger roles.

Iowa is 9-0 in the Big Ten and 18-0 overall.

Mueller and Sole Added to Baseball Staff

Sports

January 27th, 2026 by Christian Adams

IOWA CITY, Iowa – University of Iowa head baseball coach Rick Heller announced two additions to his coaching staff on Tuesday. Casey Sole will join the Hawkeyes as director of programs and player strategies and Travis Mueller joins as director of player development.

Sole replaces Tyler Cropley, while Mueller replaces Wes Obermueller, who was promoted to the Hawkeye’s pitching coach.

Sole was on the Kirkwood Community College coaching staff for the 2024-25 season, helping the Eagles to a 37-22 overall record and a 21-12 mark in ICCAC play. He helped coach NJCAA Division II Player of the Year Cal Sullivan, who hit .438 with 92 hits, 74 RBIs and led the nation in doubles (33). The Eagles had three ICCAC first team selections in Sullivan, Boede Rahe and Jaxon Schumacher.

As a player, Sole spent three seasons as a catcher at Mount Mercy from 2021-24, appearing in 55 games for the Mustangs. Prior to Mount Mercy, he had stints at Southeast Missouri State and Kirkwood Community College, where he hit .273 with five home runs and 22 RBIs in 27 games as a redshirt freshman.

A Cedar Falls, Iowa, native, Sole was a three-time Rawlings Perfect Game Central Region honorable mention All-American at Cedar Falls High School. He was a first-team all-district, all-conference and all-metro selection as a junior and senior.

His brother, J.T. Sole, was on the Iowa baseball roster in 2015.

Before arriving at Iowa, Mueller worked as a private instructor at Dugout Sports and served as a coach in the Perfect Game Iowa Select Organization.

Mueller was inducted into the Upper Iowa University Athletics Hall of Fame as an athlete following a standout four‑year baseball career with the Peacocks from 1994–97, where he played under head coach Rick Heller. A two‑way player, he was named the Iowa Conference MVP as a first baseman in 1996 after hitting .418 with 23 RBIs in 21 league games. He finished the season batting .331 with 43 RBIs over 50 games. On the mound, Mueller earned third‑team All‑America honors as Upper Iowa won the conference title, captured the Central Region championship and made an appearance in the NCAA Division III World Series.

In the World Series, Mueller homered in a 1–0 win over No. 1‑ranked Marietta College in game one. He then pitched all 10 innings in a 2–1 loss to the eventual national champions in game two, striking out 11. His 100 strikeouts that season finished one shy of the program’s single‑season record, and he totaled 180 strikeouts during his Upper Iowa career.

A Davenport West High School graduate, Mueller earned his bachelor’s degree in conservation management from Upper Iowa. He went on to play professionally in the Frontier League with the Canton Crocodiles.

Dunker Voted Academic All-America

Sports

January 27th, 2026 by Christian Adams

IOWA CITY, Iowa — University of Iowa senior Gennings Dunker has been named a second-team Academic All-American, the announcement was made Tuesday by College Sports Communicators (CSC).

Dunker, who maintains a 3.59 grade point average, is a four-time Academic All-Big Ten and three-time CSC All-District honoree. The human physiology major has also been recognized on the Dean’s List five times.

The 6-foot-5, 315-pound offensive tackle was a first-team All-Big Ten selection and part of the offensive line that won the Joe Moore Award during the 2025 season.  Iowa’s offense averaged 176.7 rushing yards per game and the line surrendered just 18 total sacks during the year. The native of Lena, Illinois, started all 13 contests as a senior and 38 games during his collegiate career.

In 27 seasons under Moon Family Head Football Coach Kirk Ferentz, 13 Iowa football student-athletes have combined to earn 17 Academic All-America honors.

McCabe Sustains Season-Ending Injury

Sports

January 27th, 2026 by Christian Adams

IOWA CITY, Iowa – University of Iowa senior Taylor McCabe sustained a season-ending injury (ACL) during Iowa’s win over No. 12 Ohio State on Sunday. She will undergo surgery and miss the remainder of the season.

“This isn’t how I imagined my senior season ending, but adversity has always been part of the game,” McCabe said. “I’m committed to my recovery and to supporting my teammates in every way I can the rest of this season. I’m grateful for the love and encouragement from my coaches, teammates, and everyone who has been with me throughout this journey at the University of Iowa.”

McCabe’s career comes to an end as one of the best 3-point shooters in program history. The Fremont, Nebraska, native, ranks 11th in school history with 172 made 3-pointers. McCabe’s 3-point field goal percentage ties Kristi Smith (.407) for the best in school history. This season, McCabe was averaging 8.1 points per game, 3.5 rebounds per game, and was shooting 37 percent from long distance.

“This is incredibly difficult news for Taylor, her family, and our program,” P. Sue Beckwith, MD, head women’s basketball coach Jan Jensen said. “Taylor gave everything she had to this team, and her impact goes far beyond what has shown up on the court. We are thankful, she chose to be a Hawkeye a few years ago and she will always be a part of our Hawkeye family.”

McCabe is set to graduate this May with a civil engineering degree. She will pursue a graduate assistant position in women’s basketball to help her attain a postgrad degree.

McCabe was also a part of Iowa’s National Championship runs in 2023 and 2024.

IOWA CITY, Iowa – University of Iowa of sophomore Ava Heiden and freshman Addie Deal both earned weekly honors from the Big Ten on Monday. Heiden was named the player of the week and Deal notched her second consecutive freshman of the week nod.
Deal and Heiden led the Hawkeyes to three wins over AP Top 15 opponents in three consecutive regular season games for the first time in program history. Iowa beat No. 15 Michigan State, No. 15 Maryland, and No. 12 Ohio State in a Sunday-to-Sunday stretch last week.
Against Maryland, Heiden registered a game-high 20 points (9-13 FG) and eight rebounds. It was Heiden’s sixth 20+ point performance of the season. The Sherwood, Ore., native, continued her efficient play against Ohio State with 18 points (9-11 FG), eight rebounds, and a career-high four steals. Heiden extended her streak of scoring 10 + points to eight straight games and against all nine Big Ten opponents this season.
Deal took her play to another level against the Buckeyes to close the perfect week for Iowa. The Irvine, Calif., native, had 20 points, five assists, and three rebounds. Deal set a new career-best in assist and point totals. Deal’s 20 points against Ohio State are the most by a Hawkeye freshman against a Big Ten team since Caitlin Clark in 2021. Deal bested her 18-point total against Michigan State from last Sunday.
The nationally ranked Hawkeyes hit the road to take on Southern California on Thursday, Jan. 29 at 8 p.m. (CT) in Los Angeles. The contest will air on Peacock and the Hawkeye Radio Network.

Sports

January 27th, 2026 by Ric Hanson

The Iowa Hawkeye men look for their third straight victory on Wednesday night when they host USC. The Hawkeyes are 4-4 in the Big Ten and have been idle for the past week. Coach Ben McCollum feels the time off was beneficial for his team.

USC is 4-5 in the Big Ten but coming off a 73-71 win at Wisconsin.

McCollum on what makes USC difficult to defend.

Senior guard Bennett Stirtz says the Trojans will be difficult to guard.

Stirtz says the Trojans do a good job of getting to the foul line and the Hawkeyes need to guard without fouling.
