Iowa baseball coach Rick Heller says the Hawkeyes would consider a return for another appearance at Principal Park in Des Moines next season. The Hawkeyes took two of three games over the weekend against Florida International in a series that drew more than 14 thousand fans to the home of the Iowa Cubs.

Heller says Iowa’s bye week in Big Ten play next season is the second to the last week of the season so there is the possibility of setting up another non-conference series.

The Hawkeyes finished the regular season with a 31-21 record. They are the fifth seed in the Big Ten Tournament in Omaha and will open Wednesday afternoon against fourth seeded Michigan.
