A late comeback was not enough as the 10th ranked Iowa Hawkeye women suffered their first home loss 91-85 to Minnesota, Thursday. The Gophers led by as many as 20 points in the fourth quarter in handing the Hawkeyes their third straight loss.

That’s Iowa coach Jan Jensen. Minnesota made 10-of-14 from three point range and also dominated on the glass, out-rebounding the Hawkeyes 41-28.

The Hawkeyes are 9-3 in the Big Ten and 18-5 overall. They are off until next Wednesday when they host 24th ranked Washington.

The Northern Iowa men begin a string of three straight games against the top teams in the Missouri Valley Conference when they host Bradley Friday night. The Panthers are fifth in the Valley at 6-6. Bradley is tied for second at 9-4 and UNI coach Ben Jacobson says the Braves are a versatile team.

Bradley won the first meeting 75-69 in Peoria nearly a month ago and the Panthers were without two of their plays along the front line.

Will Hornseth and Tristan Smith did not play in the first game against Bradley. Hornseth is back in the lineup and Smith could play Friday night after missing a month with a hip injury.

Two former Iowa college stars look to help Seattle win a second Super Bowl title on Sunday when the Seahawks play the New England Patriots in Santa Clara, California. Mason Richman was a four-year starter at tackle at Iowa and will close his rookie season in football’s biggest game. He is listed as the backup at right tackle for the Seahawks.

Richman talks about the impact playing at Iowa had on his career.

Richman on what he learned playing for Kirk Ferentz.

Former Drake All-American Eric Saubert is listed as the third string tight end for the Seahawks. He will make his first appearance in the Super Bowl after stops with numerous teams.

Saubert has played or been on the practice squad for 11 different teams. He knows Levi’s Stadium well having spent last season as a member of the San Francisco 49ers.

Saubert is a rarity in the NFL, a product of an FCS non-Scholarship program. He feels his time at Drake prepared him to carve out a spot at the highest level.

Iowa’s defense stiffened in the second half as the Hawkeyes claimed another road win, Wednesday night. The Hawks limited Washington to 26 second half points in an 84-74 victory in Seattle. The Huskies had made 20-of-26 shots in the opening half and led 48-41 at the break.

That’s Iowa coach Ben McCollum who says the Hawkeyes picked it up defensively in the second half.

Bennett Stirtz had 22 points and the Hawkeyes shot 60 percent for the game to win their fifth straight and their third straight on the road.

The 10th ranked Iowa Hawkeye women will try to bounce back Thursday night when they host Minnesota. The Hawkeyes are 9-2 in the Big Ten after blowout losses at USC and second ranked UCLA. The Gophers have won four straight and are 7-4 in conference play.

Jensen says under third year coach Dawn Plitzuweit, the Gophers have become an NCAA Tournament team.

Jensen says the depth of the Big Ten makes ever game a challenge.

The Atlantic Trojans are sending two girls to state! Cadence Kinzie and Haley Armstrong will represent Atlantic at this year’s Girls State Wrestling Tournament. Haley Armstrong, who finished first in her weight class at the Class 1A Girls Region 1 Wrestling Tournament, will be the number 2 overall seed in the 235 division at State. The senior finished the regular season with a perfect 36-0 record. Cadence Kinzie, a junior, finished 2nd at the regional championships. Kinzie finished the season with an 18-9 record and is slotted as the 8 seed in the 115-division bracket. The road to a state title is daunting, but Coach Mike Greving doesn’t think Haley and Cadence should go away from what led to such successful seasons.

Coach Greving is impressed with how these girls have found ways to improve and become better at their craft:

Both Haley and Cadence have shown that they are great examples off the mat and have been able to reach out to girls who are younger than they are. This attitude of leadership is something that Coach Greving admires about both of them:

For Haley and Cadence, the pressure doesn’t seem to get to them. These big-time matches are not intimidating to them, and Coach Greving believes in how each of them can do heading into the state tournament.

In the first round, Haley Armstrong will face off against Reese Connolly of Wapello, and Cadence Kinzie will see Taryn Moore from Alburnett. Haley and Cadence will both start the journey to a state title on Thursday, February 5th in Coralville.
