The Audubon Girls Track & Field season is winding down, but the Wheelers are looking to ramp up the intensity as the postseason approaches. The mental aspect of track is almost as substantial as the physical components says Head Coach Alaena Christensen. She also notes the Wheelers aren’t settling for less.

Audubon has participated in nine meets this season and finishing a season-best sixth place at the AHSTW co-ed meet in April and last week at the Gonzales/Parrish Invitational at ACGC. Throughout the season, points have come from many different athletes in several different events.

Christensen says the relays have been scoring events for Audubon, but flexibility has also been a key factor in the Wheelers’ success this spring.

Heading into the postseason, strategy and bringing their A game will be critical.

The Wheelers have two regular season meets, followed by the state qualifying meet in Clarinda.

IOWA CITY, Iowa – Former Hawkeye Addie Bundy will join the University of Iowa soccer staff as director of operations, it was announced Tuesday by head coach Dave DiIanni. Bundy spent three seasons as a soccer student-athlete from 2021-23.

“Welcoming Addie back to campus where she had a great undergraduate career is an exciting moment for our program,” said DiIanni. “Not only will she be excellent in the position of director of operations, but she understands the standards, expectations and history of Iowa soccer and what it took to build the program and sustain the success we’ve had.”

Bundy had a stellar freshman year, earning unanimous Big Ten All-Freshman team honors. For her career, the Fort Collins, Colorado, native started 19 games, tallying six assists and two goals and accumulating 2,169 minutes across three seasons. Bundy was a part of the Big Ten Tournament Championship and NCAA Tournament team in 2023.

Off the field, Bundy was a two-time Academic All-Big Ten selection and she was named a CoSIDA Academic All-District honoree in 2022.

“This is truly a full-circle moment, and I’m grateful to return to the University of Iowa women’s soccer program – this time as a member of the staff,” said Bundy. “It’s an honor to contribute to the growth of a team, community and university that gave so much to me.”

“I’m excited to help develop the next generation of student-athletes and support the continued success of Iowa and the Big Ten.”

Bundy returns to Iowa City after spending the past year as a support specialist for Visit Fort Collins, a destination marketing organization focused on promoting Fort Collins, Colorado. She also served as an assistant soccer coach at Rocky Mountain High School this past spring.

Bundy graduated with a bachelor’s degree in finance from the University of Iowa in 2024.

LUBBOCK, Texas— For the second time in program history, the Iowa State women’s golf team has advanced to the NCAA National Championships. The Cyclones finished the NCAA Lubbock Regional in third place, the highest finish in school history at an NCAA Regional. It was the 15th-straight year the Cyclones have been in a regional, advancing to the NCAA Championships for the first time since 2014.

The Cyclones shot a 272(-16) in round three, which was the best 18-hole score in NCAA Regional play in school history. This brought the Cyclones’ total down to 10-over for the 54 holes, which put them in the top five teams, qualifying for their second NCAA championship. 

The Cyclones had a three-way tie for first on the team, with all three tying for eighth, which was the second-best individual finish in school history at the NCAA Regionals. Karisa Chul-Ak-Sorn led the Cyclones today after shooting a school record at the NCAA Regionals with a six-under round. This brought Chul-Ak-Sorn’s total to plus-two with a team-high seven birdies to show for it.

Pammy Chookaew, who shot a three-under final round, which tied for the fourth-lowest 18-hole round in school history at the NCAA Regionals. This brought her total to a plus two, placing her in a tie for eighth. Chookaew grabbed five birdies in her final round. 

Keeley Marx is next up after shooting a four-under, bogey-free round, also bringing her total to a plus-two. Marx’s four-under round tied for the second-lowest NCAA Regional round in school history. Marx’s four birdies helped her out with that. 

Nichakorn Pinprayoon was right there with them, shooting a three-under final round, bringing her total to a plus-five. With Marx, this three-under round tied for the fourth lowest in school history at the NCAA Regionals. Pinprayoon also had an impressive five birdies to end her tournament. Alexandra Vidal rounded out the Cyclones after shooting a four-over round, bringing her total to a plus-16, placing her in a tie for 51st. 

Winning the NCAA Lubbock Regional was No. 7 Wake Forest after shooting two-under after 54 holes.

One current and one former member of the Iowa Hawkeye women’s wrestling team will bid for a spot on team USA next month as part of the Final X qualifying meet in Newark, New Jersey. Competitors will try to earn a spot in the World Championships in Croatia. Kennedy Blades is coming off an unbeaten junior season for the Hawkeyes and made her first U-S squad last summer when she won silver at the Paris Olympics.

Blades says earning a spot on the U-S Olympic team has made her even more hungry for international success.

Macey Kilty finished unbeaten in her final season at Iowa and two years ago qualified for her first U-S team in Newark.

Kilty will be in search of a spot on a third U-S that will compete at the World Championships.

Three-time Iowa NCAA champion Spencer Lee will bid for a spot on the U-S men’s team. He won silver last year at the Paris Olympics.
