IOWA CITY, Iowa – University of Iowa senior outfielder Nia Carter has earned third team All-America honors from Softball America, as it was announced on Thursday.

Carter started every game of the 2023 season in right field and led the team in batting average (.479), hits (101), runs scored (45) and total bases (115). She had a career-high 30 RBIs, third most on the team. Her 101 hits led the Big Ten and is a new single season record at Iowa. She was the second player in Big Ten history to eclipse 100 hits in a season. Her .479 batting average also paced the conference and is second in school history only behind her own freshman year season.

The Rancho Cucamonga, California, native, holds a .415 career average, which ranks first at Iowa. Carter earned first team All-Big Ten and NFCA All-Region recognition this season. She is the first Hawkeye to receive All-American honors since 2009.

IOWA CITY, Iowa — Start times for three University of Iowa 2023 football games were announced on Wednesday by the Big Ten Conference in conjunction with BTN, ESPN, CBS, NBC and FOX television networks.

The Hawkeyes open the season with three straight nonconference games. The Sept. 2 season-opener against Utah State is slated for an 11 a.m. (CT) kickoff on FS1.

The annual Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series game at Iowa State begins at 2:30 p.m. on Sept. 9 and will be televised on FOX and Iowa’s nonconference finale against Western Michigan will also have a 2:30 p.m. start time, airing on BTN.

FryFest is also part of opening weekend. Slated for Friday, Sept. 1, FryFest is held at the Iowa River Landing and celebrates everything Hawkeye. The Iowa Letterwinners Club will celebrate the 2023 Hall of Fame class throughout the weekend.

Iowa’s road contest at Penn State (Sept. 23) was previously announced as a primetime 7 p.m. telecast on CBS. That kickoff time has changed to 6:30 p.m.

Iowa’s Homecoming game is Oct. 7, with the Hawkeyes hosting Purdue. The contest against the Boilermakers will kick at either 2:30, 3, or 6:30 p.m. with the network broadcast yet to be determined.

The final game of the regular season, Friday, Nov. 24 at Nebraska, will begin at 11 a.m. with CBS carrying the game.

Kickoff times for all other games will be selected during the in-season 12-/6-day selection process, per the media rights agreements between the Big Ten Conference and its television partners.

AMES, Iowa – The Big 12 Conference has announced television broadcast assignments for Iowa State’s football non-conference games.

The Cyclones’ season-opener against Northern Iowa on Sept. 2 at MidAmerican Energy Field at Jack Trice Stadium will be on Big 12 Now on ESPN+ at 1 p.m. Iowa State owns three-straight wins against the Panthers after beating UNI, 16-10, in the last meeting in 2021.

Iowa State’s second game, a home tilt against Iowa in the Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series on Sept. 9, will kick off at 2:30 p.m. with the game being televised on FOX. The Cyclones are looking to win back-to-back games against the Hawkeyes for the first time since 2011 and 2012.

The Cyclones conclude the non-conference schedule on the road Sept. 16 against Ohio. The game will be televised at 11 a.m. on ESPN2 or ESPNU. The game is the return trip of a home-and-home series against the Bobcats after ISU won last season’s meeting, 43-10.

Former Iowa standout Micah Hyde says an injury that forced him to miss nearly all of last season helped give him perspective. The Buffalo Bills safety is preparing for his 11th season in the NFL after being sidelined last year with a week two neck injury.

Hyde says he has not changed how he prepares for the season despite last year’s injury.

Hyde began his career in Green Bay and twice has been named second team All-Pro.

For the first time since 2019 the Summer Iowa Games are returning to normal. The event was forced to deal with the COVID pandemic in 2020 and 2021 and last year was held in conjunction with the delayed State Games of America.

That’s spokesman Cory Kennedy who says the event will be offering more than 40 sports this summer.

Kennedy says they will be returning to a more condensed schedule this year.

Kennedy says the change in the schedule will give the event a more Olympic style feel. Events will be held July seventh through the 16th.

The Opening Ceremonies in Ames will be Friday, July 14th.
