No. 18 Ohio State rallies to beat No. 2 Iowa women in OT

Sports

January 21st, 2024 by Ric Hanson

The win streak for the second ranked Iowa Hawkeye women is over at 15. Ohio State outscored the Hawkeyes 17-9 in overtime as the 18th ranked Buckeyes claimed a 100-92 victory in Columbus. It was a game Iowa led by 12 early in the fourth quarter.

That’s Iowa coach Lisa Bluder.Caitlin Clark poured in 45 points but the Hawkeyes had no answer for Ohio State sophomore forward Cotie (Koh-tee) McMahon, who had a career high 33 points and added 12 rebounds.

Mollie Davis continued her strong play for the Hawkeyes. She finished with 14 points and eight assists.

Caitlin Clark was running off of the court after the game, when a court-storming fan collided with her. She spun and fell to the ground as her concerned teammates and coaching staff rushed over to help her. In a post-game press conference, Clark said “[It was] kind of scary and could’ve caused a pretty serious injury to me and knocked the wind out of me, but luckily my teammates kind of picked me up and got me off the court.”

“Their AD already came and apologized to me,” Clark said, “so I really appreciate that.” Hawkeyes coach Lisa Bluder said she was disappointed that her players weren’t able to walk off of the floor safely.

The Hawkeyes fall to 7-1 in the Big Ten and 18-2 overall.

DeSantis, after distant second in Iowa, ends his presidential campaign

News

January 21st, 2024 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has suspended his presidential campaign, just six days after finishing a distant second to former President Trump in the Iowa Caucuses. “It’s clear to me that a majority of Republican primary voters want to give Donald Trump another chance,” DeSantis said. “…He has my endorsement because we can’t go back to the old Republican guard of yester-year, a repackaged form of warmed over corporatism that Nikki Haley represents.”

DeSantis made his announcement Sunday afternoon in a video posted on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. With the New Hampshire Primary coming up on Tuesday, DeSantis said he could not ask his supporters to volunteer their time and money if there was not a clear path to victory. A month ago, DeSantis was predicting he’d win the Iowa Caucuses. DeSantis and political action committees supporting his campaign spent 35 million dollars in Iowa and he visited each of Iowa’s 99 counties

“Nobody worked harder and we left it all out on the field,” DeSantis said. DeSantis, in announcing his endorsement of Trump, mentioned he had signed a pledge to honor the Republican Party’s presidential nominee. Governor Kim Reynolds, who endorsed DeSantis in November, has also been saying she’ll back Trump if he’s the nominee.

“This wasn’t about President Trump. I supported him in ’16. I supported him in ’20. I wish he would have won,” Reynolds said. “…I can tell you without hesitation whoever our nominee is, I’m going to get behind them because this country is in trouble.”

Reynolds made her comments Friday on “Iowa Press” on Iowa P-B-S.
