Film sessions this week at Drake have been interesting as the Bulldogs get ready to visit Idaho. The Vandals are coming off hard fought losses to Washington State and Indiana.

Bulldog coach Todd Stepsis. Two weeks ago Drake opened the season with a 56-14 loss at top ranked North Dakota State and while this could become another mismatch, Stepsis feels they are important for the program.

Stepsis says the players enjoy playing the top FCS programs.

 

UI study finds hormones may lead to female athletes getting injured more often

News, Sports

September 16th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – University of Iowa researchers say hormones may play a role in the reason why female athletes are more likely to get hurt than male athletes. A new U-I study finds the female hormone Relaxin contributes to the breakdown of cartilage, increasing the chance of injury. Robert Westermann, an orthopedic surgeon at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, says hormones often get overlooked when it comes to injury prevention in female athletes.

Westermann says the UIHC orthopedics department is working with OB-GYNs to start looking at ways to regulate hormones in female athletes, such as using birth control pills.

Westermann says a lot of research on injuries is focused on anatomic or muscular patterns, while the effect of hormones is not often top-of-mind.
