Hawkeyes Headed to Iceland

Sports

May 7th, 2024 by Seth Tiegs

IOWA CITY, Iowa — University of Iowa Soccer travels to Iceland from May 12-22 to compete in exhibition matches against Valur and Breiðablik professional clubs.

Each opponent plays in the Úrvalsdeild kvenna, the top-tier women’s football league in Iceland. The clubs have won a combined 28 Icelanic Championships and 25 Icelandic Cups.

The trip will center around the Reykjanes Penninsula area and consist of visits to both dramatic natural vistas and major metropolitan areas.

Iowa Soccer will visit Golden Circle National Park, the Snæfellsnes Penninsula, the Westman Islands and Blue Lagoon thermal spa. The Hawkeyes will also see the waterfalls, glaciers, lava fields and black sand beaches of the South Coast region.

Back in Reykjanese, the Hawkeyes will have access to practice facilities and guest-coaching opportunities.

This trip is made possible by the generous donation of Janice Strang.

Iowa kicks off the fall season with an exhibition against South Dakota on Aug. 7 at the Iowa Soccer Complex.

Cooper DeJean returns to the practice field

Sports

May 7th, 2024 by Seth Tiegs

Former Iowa All-American Cooper DeJean finally made his return to the practice field by taking part in rookie-mini-camp with the Philadelphia Eagles. DeJean was taken by the Eagles in the second round of the NFL Draft after missing the final four games with the Hawkeyes after suffering a fractured leg.

The Eagles made a trade to move up in the draft to take DeJean.

The big question is where DeJean ends up on defense. He has worked at corner, slot corner and safety.

Former Iowa QB Spencer Petras named starter at Utah State

Former Iowa quarterback Spencer Petras has been named the starter at Utah State. Petras was a three-year starter for the Hawkeyes but spent last season as a student coach after suffering a shoulder injury in the 2022 regular season finale against Nebraska. He beat out Cooper Legas during spring drills.

That’s Aggies coach Blake Anderson who felt he needed to name a starter at the end of spring drills.

Utah State finished 6-7 last season, including a 24-14 loss at Iowa in the season opener.

Tampa says the disappointment of falling to the fourth round was negated when he was drafted by the Ravens.

Tampa says he enjoyed returning to the practice field.
