Weve got a lot of guys that can play. Weve got a lot of potential in this freshman class. And its just looking to bring the potential out of them. When you have young players. Youve gotta let them get in the game. Make a mistake. Stay in the game. Thats the critical thing this point in the season. You look at the rest of our schedule. If these young guys are gonna get ready. Theyve gotta be on the floor and they have to have some success. Thats how you build their confidence. Saturday the panthers titied off their season with a loss uni fell to Colorado State 84 to 78 two things ben jacobson prides himself on our rebounding and defense and the latter was not up to par for a team that allowed over 80 points just once last year and that game went into Double Overtime so defense will be a point of improvement before tuesdays tip against stephen f. Austin. To give up 36 points in the paint when the majority of those are dribble drive, its hard to play that way. So we did not do we just didnt do a good job of guarding the basketball. Basketball. Didnt do a very good job of taking pride in getting stops. Letting a team come in and get 82 points on your home floor is not something that we are proud of and not something that we want to have happen ever more hoops still to come bluders bunch needed a comeback against utmartin would the hawkeyes rally for the win find out when fox welcome back to fox sports sunday in their first game of the season lunders bunch was flying on all cylinders 5 hawks scored in double figures and their freshman didnt play like freshman that wasnt the case in game number 2 2iowa hosting ut martin and the hawks started in a hole down by as many as 10. Luckily they have some fantastic freshman. Heres tania davis. Silky smooth jumper. Iowa took the lead early in the second half. And inside. Megan gustafson patrolled the paint. T. Grabs the board. And puts it in. Both freshman scored in double figures. And the vets came to play too. In transition. Alexa kastanek is wide open for three. And she makes em pay. It wasnt etty. And it wasnt easy. But iowa gets it done. Bluders bunch beats tenneseemartin 6256. Heres lisa bluder on digging out of that early hole. We didnt panic. And im really happy with that. Sometimes when you get down. People start forcing bad shots to try to get back into a game. And we didnt do that today and i was very happy about that. I thought we had some d dent looks early in the game. They just werent falling. Thats gonna happen and thats when you rely on your defense. The states big 4 all in action today drake beat iowa state 74 to 70 former north linn s sndout Nicole Miller dropped in 13 points for the bulldogs and Northern Iowa beat rockhurst 58 to 39. Over 42 thousa fans packed Kinnick Stadium yesterday y r the grapple on the gridiron setting a record for the largest dual crowd in ncdouble a history so that was a success successand on paper the result of the dual itself was too iowa knocked d f top ranked Oklahoma State 18 to 16 but it came down to bonus points after each team won 5 matches and thats something that thehawks werent happy with. E dont want to be there, we want to take all 10 matches, if not 9, if not 8 you know, we want to dominate more. Even though we were 4th and they were 1 it doesnt matter, we want to domimite. We didit quite dominate, we just won. Won. I think there was a couple that we let get away from us, we left some points on the mat, so you know its good that we won, but we could have won. I think.
