IOWA CITY, Iowa — The University of Iowa men’s basketball team has signed a contract to play the University of Cincinnati as part of the Chicago Legends next season.
The Hawkeyes and Bearcats will play on a neutral court at the United Center in Chicago on Dec. 21, 2019, as part of a four-team men’s college basketball doubleheader. Dayton will face Colorado in the other contest.
“We are excited to return to the United Center and play in front of our tremendous alumni base in Chicago,” said Iowa head coach Fran McCaffery. “We look forward to playing Cincinnati, who is one of the premiere teams in the country.
“If you look at our schedule in 2019-20, we will play 20 Big Ten games, two Challenge contests (ACC/Gavitt), Iowa State, Cincinnati, and an MTE (multi-team event). It will be a challenge, but that’s what you sign up for when you come to play at The University of Iowa.”
Iowa and Cincinnati have played eight previous times, with the last contest coming in the 2005 NCAA Tournament in Indianapolis.
“We are proud to welcome back this impactful basketball event to Chicago,” said Tom Valdiserri, executive vice president of KemperLesnik, a Chicago-based sports marketing, events, public relations and content marketing agency that will produce the event and also manages the Maui Jim Maui Invitational and CBS Sports Classic. “The tradition of basketball in Chicago is second to none. Our goal is to honor the city’s most heralded players while featuring today’s fantastic talent right here at home.”
Each of the 2019 teams has advanced to the NCAA Tournament at least twice in the past four seasons. Tickets will go on sale to the general public in 2019.
IOWA CITY, Iowa – University of Iowa senior Megan Gustafson earned her fourth consecutive Big Ten Player of the Week award, the conference office announced Monday.
Gustafson averaged 29.0 points and 11.0 rebounds in a pair of games this week, shooting 77.4 percent from the field and 90.9 percent from the free throw line. In an ACC/Big Ten Challenge matchup against No. 1 Notre Dame, Gustafson netted 26 points on 11-for-16 shooting (68.8 percent). She also registered 10 rebounds to collect her 60th career double-double.
On Sunday, Gustafson scored a season-high 32 points on 13-of-15 shooting (86.6 percent) from the field in just 23 minutes action against Robert Morris. The Port Wing, Wisconsin, native was a perfect 6-for-6 from the free throw line. She pulled down 12 rebounds to notch the 61st double-double of her career.
Gustafson is three rebounds shy of tying Iowa’s all-time career rebounding record of 1,067 (Cindy Haugejorde, 1980). She is 23 points away from reaching 2,000 career points.
The conference award is the 14th of Gustafson’s career and fourth of the season. She broke a Big Ten single-season record last season with nine Player of the Week honors. She was also named to the conference’s weekly honor roll six times.
Gustafson and the No. 16/15 Hawkeyes return to Carver-Hawkeye Arena on Wednesday, hosting Iowa State in the Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series. Tipoff is at 7 p.m. (CT). Tickets are $12 for adults and free for youth (18 & younger) and UI students.
NEW HAMPTON, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa man has been sentenced to life in prison for the death of his infant son who was found in a maggot-infested baby swing. The Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier reports Judge Richard Stochl on Tuesday sentenced 29-year-old Zachary Paul Koehn to the life sentence without parole, as was mandatory under state law. Koehn was earlier convicted of first-degree murder in the death of 4-month-old Sterling Koehn.
Medics called to an Alta Vista apartment in August 2017 found the infant dead in the swing in a dark, sweltering bedroom. An autopsy showed he’d died of malnutrition, dehydration and an E. coli infection caused by being left in a maggot-infested diaper for up to two weeks.
A trial for the baby’s mother, 21-year-old Cheyanne Harris, is set for January.
The City of Griswold, with the help of Southwest Iowa Planning Council, is preparing to apply to the Iowa Economic Development Authority (IEDA) for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) for housing rehabilitation and is asking for help from residents. Applications must meet certain criteria including need, impact, and feasibility of the project within the city. To determine these things, SWIPCO will be doing a telephone income survey, a housing assessment survey, and soliciting pre-applications.
The income survey is conducted by phone by SWIPCO staff and consists of two questions regarding the number of residents in the household and whether the household income falls above or below a certain amount. No names will be used and all the information collected is strictly confidential.
The housing assessment survey is a brief survey to determine the community’s current and future housing needs. The survey is currently available online at https://tinyurl.com/GriswoldHousing. Paper copies of the survey can be found at City Hall and the Library. SWIPCO Lead Planner Alexsis Fleener says “Public participation is a critical component of the housing assessment and application process. The survey allows residents to inform the city of what they feel the most pressing needs are, what they would like to see happen, and goals to work toward.”
Any homeowners interested in participating in the CDBG home rehabilitation program are strongly encouraged to submit a pre-application. Pre-applications are available at city hall (712-778-2615) or through SWIPCO (866-279-4720 ext. 234). Please submit the pre-application and income tax return to SWIPCO by April 1, 2019. Applications may be submitted by mail, email, or drop off. If the city is awarded the CDBG grant, all pre-applicants will be contacted to complete a full application.
The CDBG owner-occupied housing repair program seeks to bring homes up to Iowa Minimum Housing Rehabilitation Standards. Items repaired may include furnaces, water heaters, windows, doors, roofing, siding, foundation, etc. up to $24,999.
