This sounds like a pretty good plan...

Well now the Sunday game is back on, 1 PM at Robinson-Dresser. Until the next tweet from UNI Softball, anyway. I think we're still playing Indiana State, but maybe not. Also most likely subject to change, but for now the Saturday games are on ESPN3,...Leave a comment:

*sigh* Yeah, I'm sure you're right....Leave a comment:

?? Apparently the Dome is not being made available on Sunday for some reason, and there isn't confidence that Robinson-Dresser will be playable. However, Iowa/ISU/Drake have been on their fields despite the snow. Our local youth soccer teams are now...Last edited by in_the_stands; 04-20-2018, 07:58 AM.Leave a comment:

Have you heard what her injury is? Nothing at all in the media. At this point might be better to shut her down and have her ready for a strong season next year, as Drake did with Newman a year ago.
There's a possibility that Sunday's game...Leave a comment:

I know that's been the narrative about Big Ten women's sports, but then Iowa hired Bond Shymansky. Not sure how many female SB coaches would want to work for Barta, given how the situation with Gayle Blevins went (not to mention the Griesbaum/Meyer...Leave a comment:

Indeed. Our own hires for WBB and SB have done pretty well, but for the present the Bulldogs are superior in those sports.
Seems likely that Barancyzk will move on to bigger and better things at some point; I wonder if she was a candidate...Leave a comment:

I think that's a reasonable theory - Iowa actually skipped a weekend early in the season, and they are having what for them is a good season. Plus I'd guess Iowa flies on a lot of their longer trips, where we generally go by bus. I know I'd get tired...Last edited by in_the_stands; 04-17-2018, 07:35 AM.Leave a comment:

Not a great time to be playing Drake, they're looking like they could run the table right through the tournament. They could end up with a decent enough RPI to actually get an NCAA at-large bid should they get upset in the MVC tournament, which is unlikely...Leave a comment:

OK, that I like...

On the ESPN3 broadcast of the ISU game, the announcers said there was a possibility of another game being played in the Dome Sunday in addition to game 3 of UNI-Loyola - anyone hear which teams might be involved?
Edit - found my answer,...Last edited by in_the_stands; 04-14-2018, 09:11 AM.Leave a comment:

My suggestion for the new court is an Oregon-ish theme, only with a cornfield instead of a forest. How could it get more "Iowa" than that?

Looks like the move is immediate for softball at least. Our games with Loyola this weekend have been moved to ESPN+ (Thursday's ISU game was on ESPN3), and Drake's SB games with Valpo were to have been moved before they were canceled by weather.

Heh, A while before UNI bought it, my HS had to play at substate game on that floor at McElroy. The players said there were places where if you dribbled there the ball wouldn't come back up.
Also, I can remember UNI hosting Western Michigan...Last edited by in_the_stands; 04-12-2018, 04:59 PM.Leave a comment:

Good deal as long as you can keep getting tournament floors. But seems odd that they can't be refinished and re-used. IIRC, when it was decided the original synthetic floor in the Dome was no longer acceptable, we bought the ancient floor that was...Leave a comment:

Just now saw that, along with the softball games in the Dome beginning with ISU tonight (Thursday), UNI Soccer is playing Iowa this Friday Apr 13 at 7PM, also in the Dome!...Leave a comment:

I hope not, for their sake

I thought I saw that on the website, how come? Granted they weren't making gobs of money anyway, but I'd at least collect a couple of bucks each, maybe enough to buy the team pizza after the game.Leave a comment:
