Former Iowa star Micah Hyde says the Buffalo Bills are focused on taking the next step. The Bills are coming off two straight AFC East division titles but despite all the progress have come up short in the playoffs.

Iowa’s Payton Sandfort eyes larger role as sophomore

Sports

June 20th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

Iowa sophomore Payton Sandfort has experienced growth on the court and off. The Waukee native is coming off a freshman season in which he averaged just over five points per game and shot 37-percent from three point range. He is also approaching six feet, eight inches.

Sandfort’s role increased as the Hawkeyes made a second half run that included the Big Ten Tournament championship.

Sandfort was able to find a role even though he was part of a team loaded with veteran players.

Sandfort is working on areas this summer that will help him get an expanded role next season.
