Iowa overcame a slow start as the 25th ranked Hawkeyes beat Illinois State 40-0. Quarterback Cade McNamara led the Hawkeyes to 34 second half points and finished 21 of 31 for 251 yards and three touchdowns.
McNamara missed most of last season with an ACL injury.
McNamara spent most of the past two years injured.
The Hawkeyes got a lift from freshman receiver Reece Vander Zee. The former Central lyon/George-Little Rock star had two touchdown receptions and finished with five catches in his collegiate debut. Vander Zee emerged during the second half of preseason camp.
Vander Zee waas asked if he was nervous at the start of the game.
Vander Zee says growing up in northwest Iowa prepared him for this moment.
With Kirk Ferentz suspended for the opener Seth Wallace served as acting coach.
Wallace says it was a good opener despite the slow start.
Wallace says Vander Zee’s play was a big lift for the Hawkeyes.
Iowa State scored on the second play of the game and went on to beat North Dakota 21-3. The Fighting Hawks cotrolled the ball and ran a total of 72 plays to just 48 for the Cyclones. North Dakota finished with 174 yards of rushing.
That’s ISU coach Matt Campbell who was pleased with the effort.
Campbell says there are plenty of areas that need work.
(Council Bluffs, Iowa) – Officials with the Council Bluffs Police Department reports a man experiencing what was described as a “mental health crisis,” walked into a church, armed with a long gun and a handgun this (Monday) afternoon. Officers responded to the scene at 300 S. 9th Street, a little after 12 Noon. At the time of the incident there were no services going on and the few occupants who were in the church exited leaving the man in the building alone.
Arriving officers made contact with the subject and a negotiator established a line of communication with him. A perimeter was established around the immediate area of the incident. The roadways were shut down to all traffic and neighbors were advised to shelter in place. After about one-hour of negotiation with the man, he surrendered to police. The individual was detained and transported to the hospital for a mental evaluation.
There were no injuries. At this time the name of the subject was being withheld by authorities due to this being a mental health issue. He will be cited for discharge of a firearm in the city limits and disorderly conduct.
NO FURTHER INFORMATION IS BEING RELEASED AT THIS TIME

The Northwestern College football team has high hopes heading into Saturday’s season opener at Hastings of Nebraska. The Red Raiders are second ranked in the NAIA poll and have played in the national championship game three times in the last four years. Coach Matt McCarty likes what he has seen in camp.
A pair of freshmen are competing at quarterback after All-American Jalyn Gramstad transferred to Nebraska.
Whoever wins the job will lead an experienced offense.
McCarty says an experienced defense could be the best in program history.
(Radio Iowa) – The Iowa County Recorder’s Association plans to ask legislators to raise the fees they may charge for the documents they provide. Dickinson County Recorder Ann Ditsworth is the group’s vice president. “Since 1985, our fees have been the same,” Ditsworth says, “and so we have been studying the ways we could best advance that level.” Under current law, county recorders may charge seven dollars for the first page and five dollars for each additional page of a document. The association plans to ask legislators to raise the fee to 10 dollars per page.
“One of the things that we are most focused on for a fee increase is to be able to sustain the Iowa Land Record Repository, which we created in the early 2006 range and since then have continued to develop and maintain and add documents to,” she says. “…Every mortgage, every deed is going to this website that is one spot for all of the state of Iowa.” Ditsworth says the fees would be used to support the website and help county recorders update software.
“Since the time of computerization, naturally software has changed and so that is a part of how we preserve documents,” Ditsworth says. “Historic preservation is a large part of what we do because our documents are part of the American dream.”
County recorders also maintain copies of birth, death and marriage records and assists the state by registering boats and snowmobiles as well as all-terrain vehicles and off-road vehicles.

(Radio Iowa) – Ninety-two restored barns will be featured on this month’s statewide tour organized by the Iowa Barn Foundation. The group raises money to preserve the state’s dwindling number of barns. Wayne Frost, a spokesman for the foundation, says all 92 barns on the tour have received Iowa Barn Foundation grants. “A sprinkling of the barns we have helped across the state,” Frost says. Twenty of the barns have never been featured before on one of the group’s tours.
“I would tell anybody who’s gone out on a barn tour before, come back again because we’ve got a lot of new barns,” Frost says, “and every barn has its own story to tell.” The tour is unique because people can go inside the barns rather than just drive by. Frost says some are working barns. “There’s hay in the hayloft (and) straw; there’s cattle, hogs, sheep, horses — so it’s a mix,” Frost says. “Some of them have spiffied them up.” 
This is the Iowa Barn Foundation’s 24th fall tour, scheduled for the weekend of September 14th and 15th. “The value of the tour is raising the awareness of the impact our barns have,” Frost says. “One of our board members, Dwight Hughes, likes to use the phrase that, ‘Our barns are really the castles on the prairie,’ and if you think of the landscape as you drive across the state of Iowa, all the barns that you see — it’s just amazing, but they’re disappearing.”
About 200-thousand barns were built in Iowa. Experts estimate only 60-thousand are still standing. Frost restored a barn near Waterloo that was built in the 1870s and it was included in the Barn Foundation’s spring tour.
