IOWA CITY, Iowa — University of Iowa junior center Tyler Linderbaum has been named one of four finalists for the 2021 Rotary Lombardi Award. The announcement was made Tuesday by the Rotary Lombardi Award in conjunction with the Rotary Club of Houston.
The Lombardi Award winner will be presented Dec. 8 in Houston. The award annually recognizes the college football offensive or defensive lineman, who in addition to outstanding performance and ability, best exemplifies the character and discipline of NFL Hall of Fame head coach Vince Lombardi.

Iowa won its final six games in 2020 and began the 2021 season with six straight wins. The Hawkeyes are ranked 14th in the current coaches poll after being ranked No. 2 in the nation earlier this season.
The Solon, Iowa, native was tabbed a midseason first-team All-American by four outlets, including Associated Press, The Athletic, CBSSports.com and Sporting News. He was named preseason first-team All-Big Ten and preseason first-team All-America by five media outlets. Linderbaum was also named to the Big Ten Conference preseason honors list, as well as the Rimington Trophy and Outland Trophy watch lists.
Linderbaum (6-foot-3, 290-pounds) was a finalist for the Rimington Trophy a year ago and earned first-team All-America honors from The Athletic and Pro Football Focus. He was a second-team All-America honoree by the Associated Press, FWAA, Phil Steele, and the Walter Camp Foundation. He was a first-team All-Big Ten selection by league media.

(Radio Iowa) – There are concerning levels of contamination in public water systems across Iowa, according to an environmental group that sets its own health standards. Water from more than 700 Iowa utilities had levels of certain contaminants above health guidelines set by the Environmental Working Group, which are not legally enforceable. E-W-G senior scientist David Andrews says government regulations aren’t keeping up with the science. “The EPA hasn’t set any new legal limits in over two decades and yet during that time period, our scientific understanding of how chemicals interact with our body, which chemicals are found in the environment, it’s progressed an incredible amount,” Andrews says, “and we’re now learning that many chemicals are impacting our health.”
Only a few of the utilities exceeded legal limits in the past few years for radium, selenium and arsenic, but Andrews argues the established federal limits are extremely outdated. “Impacting our health and causing harm to infants, adults, at concentrations that weren’t of concern three or four decades ago,” Andrews says. “So that’s where people should be very concerned is the fact that there have been no updates to the system or very few updates and we really think there needs to be.” Iowans can search the website by ZIP code to get more information on the water in their area.
