2010 Year In Review

Visit us on the web @ www.iowasportsconnection.com Volume 12 Issue 10 3

This is our last issue of every year as we look back at the biggest stories of the past 12 months. I was prepared to place the UNI men’s basketball teams’ picture on this twelfth annual “Year in Review” when we were saddened by the passing of Mr. Robert “Bob” Feller. There was no question in the world of The Iowa Sports Connection that this was our cover and biggest story of 2010 as we lost the greatest athlete that the state of Iowa has produced. I refuse to call him “Rapid Robert” or the “Heater from Van Meter” or even Bob. This gentleman, a member of America’s “Greatest Generation”, merits the utmost respect for his commitment to America, Iowa, his family, faith, and lastly America’s pastime in his era, the great game of baseball. I was blessed to interview Mr. Feller half a dozen occasions in the past decade and I was the MC for the Bob Feller Hall of Fame festival in 2004 and the pleasure of spending the day with the Hall of Famer at the Van Meter High School gymnasium. Man, he loved his roots in Iowa and especially his hometown of Van Meter. Sure, he was opinionated and misunderstood by 21st century media, however, the longer you spend on the planet your opinions are perceived as crotchety and certainly not politically correct. Mr. Feller did not care what the media’s position was. He lived and knew what sacrifice it took to keep all Americans free and as did many of his peers. He answered the call to duty to protect America and the values of faith, family, and freedom. He walked the walk while today’s generation only talks the talk! This commitment along with his ambassador work for the great game of baseball his entire life were his proven credentials to speak out on many topics of today and no “whippersnapper” was going to tell Mr. Feller right from wrong on any topic and that’s why I personally respected him more than any athlete I have ever met. Iowa was blessed to have him represent us for 75 years on the national and international stage and he will be missed but certainly not forgotten. 2010 was a superb year for the Iowa Sports Connection and 2011 promises to exceed the success of this past 12 months as we enter the 13th year of publishing Iowa’s only

ProseFrom the Pub

Mr. Robert Feller Enters the Field of Dreams as a Great Iowan and a Great American!

statewide sports magazine supported by our Iowa Sports Connection Radio and Television Network, digital products, websites, and social media. The reality is that without the incredible stories of Iowans “From the Pee Wees to the Preps to the Pros” we would not have the ability to

continue our expansion across the entire state “From the Missouri to

the Mississippi”. Inside this 2010 Year in Review there are reprints of the incredible young male and female athletes of 2010 led by Harrison Barnes from Ames who’s is now attending North Carolina, and Hannah Willms from Dike-New Hartford, an Iowa State Cyclone. These are two incredible athletes from this past year and we will continue to follow their success collegiately as we do all year long in all of our statewide multi-media. The stories that we selected for 2010 range from stories of triumph and success at every level and every sport to the tragic loss and recognition of the late great Ed Thomas our 2009 cover story, and the loss of Mr. Bob Feller. As they say on ABC “The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat” is also a statement for the reality of life and its ups and downs that God presents to each and every one of us. Mr. Bob Feller and Mr. Ed Thomas our last two “Year In Review” covers certainly remind each of one of us that life is short and so is the “Thrill of Victory”! In closing out 2010, I thank you for your loyalty as we enter our 13th year. I promise you that we will continue to lead the way in Iowa with our entire multi-media stable of statewide coverage of positive participation by Iowan’s “From the Pee Wees to Preps to the Pros” and pass the torch of faith, family, and commitment that Mr. Bob Feller lived and breathed on a daily basis promoting all that is good in our Iowa communities and the sports that are played in all 99 counties.

Have A Championship Year! God Bless You and God Bless America!

Qwest Most Valuable Parent: Cortez Nichols, Central Iowa ExcalibursTim Weideman Editor Originally Published: Volume. 12 Issue 6

When it comes to training kids in sports, some might shy away from pushing them hard. That’s not how Cortez Nichols, coach of the Central Iowa Excaliburs track club, operates. Nichols has a saying, “Train hard, work easy.” He takes that approach very seriously and it works. Nichols trains the kids on his team to be nationally competitive not only when they’re competing for his club, but later on in their track careers, too. Glance over names of athletes that made their way to where they are now because of Nichols’ club and several names stand out, including Dowling Catholic high school stars Betsy and Katie Flood. But the name that really jumps out, and shows just how far former members of the Excaliburs can go, is Des Moines sweetheart Lolo Jones. Those athletes didn’t get to where they are now by being babied. Nichols pushed them for everything they had. Nichols makes no apologies for his tough workouts. He said training hard gets kids to the next levels in track and field. “That’s what we do, we train hard,” said Nichols. “Some kids can’t handle it and they quit. But if they want to compete at that level, you have to really work hard and you can’t do easy training.” It’s not just the physical part of training that Nichols takes seriously. A big part is the mental aspect. “When you get out there in that heat and you’ve got to stand for an hour, you know, no water, your parents aren’t around, you’re surrounded by a bunch of strangers. You have to prepare these kids for that.” Nichols also has very high academic standards for

his club. Nichols said he plans on requiring the kids to bring report cards to practice and show their grades to him before he will let them practice. If the kids don’t have at least a 2.0 GPA, he’ll require them to get tutoring. “We want our kids to be students,” said Nichols. “We want them to be able to balance their books with their sports. It has to be like that.” Nichols said he follows kids from other club teams that are national medal winners but never get the chance to go to college. “I don’t want mine to be like that,” he said. Perhaps the most important part of Nichols’ program is having the support of the parents. “Without parental support, you

don’t have nothing,” said Nichols. Nichols requires parents to take kids to meets because he wants parents to realize they have to be there supporting their kid. “I even like the parents staying at practice so they can see what I’m doing to (the kids),” said Nichols. “If you don’t want the parents around, what you’re doing ain’t right. I’m not going to do nothing or say nothing to any kid to their face (that) I wouldn’t say in front of their parents. That’s just how I coach. I talk to these kids like they’re mine and that’s why some people may or may not like my program, because I treat them like they’re my kids. Nichols has had parents come to practices and watch him train their kids, and they don’t always like what they see. He’s had parents try to let their kids rest for a bit, but he’s stopped them because if they let their kids rest, the kids won’t be ready when competitions roll around. The Excaliburs have a certified trainer that comes to practices once a week to teach the kids about telling the difference between injury and soreness. Nichols said he knows he pushes the kids hard, so he wants the trainer

present to show the kids, and the parents, that he’s not pushing them over the limit. It’s better for parents to be at the practices, though, said Nichols, because he likes to explain to them and let them see how he’s helping their kids excel at a level many other kids can’t. “Once you explain it to them, they see you’re right when they see the results,” said Nichols. “The results answer all the questions.” To listen to Nichols talk about the kids on his team, it’s easy to believe he really does see them as his kids. He mentioned a girl on his team that was mentally handicapped. Before joining the Excaliburs, her mother asked Nichols if he thought the girl could do hurdles. Nichols said he could coach her. “The doctors didn’t think she could do this,” Nichols said. “This little girl made the national meet, three events at the national meet. In one of her races, she led to the last 50 yards. She was able to take directions (and) learn how to run paced. It’s just amazing what you can teach kids. If you take the time out with kids, whether they be special education or whether they can’t hear or can’t see, (you can teach them).” Nichols also told of a girl with a handicap that some would think might prevent her from doing hurdles, but she competes at a high level. “We trained her to run hurdles,” Nichols said. “She can’t do it like a regular runner, but she’s hurdling and you’re liable to read about her one day in the paper.” Nichols pours everything he has into helping these kids. “It’s more than just coaching, it’s a lifestyle,” he said. He wants to help prepare kids not only to succeed down the road in their track careers, but to simply help them for life and teach them respect. Iowa track and field fans will undoubtedly be treated to seeing many good athletes sprinting around ovals for years to come with coaches like Nichols training young athletes. Who knows? Nichols may be the one responsible for giving Iowa the next Lolo Jones.

Qwest Team of the Month: COBRA Optimist WrestlingClub of Council BluffsAaron McFarland ISC Editor Originally Published: Vol. 11 Issue 12

Everyone in the State of Iowa knows how important wrestling is to our great state. In some places, namely Council Bluffs, there are dead spots. Not the city as a whole, with perennial 3A contender Lewis Central, but on the western half of the city. Until 2005, the only wrestling club for Council Bluffs youth was the Council Bluffs Panthers whose gym was in the backyard of Lewis Central high school. Now, the COBRA Optimist Wrestling Club of Council Bluffs gives the youth of the “West End” a chance to wrestle without having to travel across town. August Manz, founder of the wrestling portion of COBRA and head wrestling coach at Thomas Jefferson high school, has established a successful youth wrestling program that will pay dividends for wrestling fans. Starting with 30 wrestlers in 2005, the COBRA wrestling club now has 150 young wrestlers on the mats. This fact definitely shows that there was a need in the west end for a wrestling club. Not only will this program benefit the youth, but it will also make wrestling in Council Bluffs middle schools and high schools more competitive. According to Manz, “ COBRA started for a couple reasons. To establish a youth program for Thomas Jefferson high school so our program could gain experience and to spread the sport of wrestling and allow more people to experience this great sport.” Obviously a top sport in our state, the COBRA program will only add to the already competitive sport. COBRA offers more than just a sport and it is evident

if anyone views their website. With visible notes on wrestler responsibilities, parent do’s and don’ts, and how to treat officials, this club is molding the families and young men to not only be great wrestlers but great people in the sport of wrestling. This is important to athletes of every sport but specific to wrestling, the opportunities beyond college wrestling aren’t that of sports like basketball and football. “It’s important. There is no professional wrestling or leagues. Just like in any sport the chance to make a living off wrestling is slim. You can’t rely on just being an athlete. Academics are important and life beyond wrestling isn’t easy. We teach

them to fight through the hard times and prepare them for the real world”, Manz elaborated on teaching more than just wrestling. Not only are the coaches of COBRA implementing lessons beyond the sport, but it is cost effective for families. The charge to be involved in COBRA is $15 per family for an entire year membership. If you have three young wrestlers, the charge is $15 to wrestle for COBRA. “A lot of people have come to me and said they didn’t know about this organization and they are grateful for the fact that kids can play at an affordable price”, Manz said. Not only can the kids compete

in wrestling, but the $15 charge includes playing other sports for the COBRA organization. With affordable prices and coaches teaching life lessons, could it get any better for the wrestlers of the west end? Take a look at some of the accomplishments COBRA has achieved and you’ll find the answer. A note

from Coach Manz on the COBRA website tells it all, “We won three different team tournaments last year andwere in the hunt for a top two placing in everyone that we went to last year. At the state level (the toughest state tournament in the nation) we had 12 kids qualify and we had two state placers Brian Grimes (3rd) and McGwire Midkiff (7th), we also had a few others that were one or two matches away from placing. We sent 5 kids to the Super Pee Wee state tournament and 3 of them placed Carter Harold (2nd), Cameron Baker (3rd), and Marcus Kritenbrink. We also had some kids wrestle at some National tournaments and come away with some All American honors.” Admittedly, it’s not all Coach Manz and he would like to thank all parents, coaches, and helpers within the program. “Without them, we wouldn’t be where we are at”, Manz said. Coach Manz would also like to specifically thank Keith Midkiff for being there from day one, Jess Ziegler for promoting the sport and club, Donny Jones for his knowledge of the sport and bringing 30 years of coaching to COBRA, and the parents for their undoubted commitment. Showing how much of a family sport wrestling is, Manz would also like to thank his father, Chris Manz, for the thankless job that he completes. Completing paperwork and every other job above and beyond to make COBRA what it is. The COBRA Optimist Wrestling Club of Council Bluffs is a perfect example of why our state is quite possibly the best wrestling state in the nation. The opportunities COBRA presents to our youth in Council Bluffs and the character the wrestlers will wrestle with is going to continue the unmatched tradition of wrestling in this state. For more on COBRA wrestling, feel free to check out their website at www.cbcobrawrestling.org/.

Barnes and Willms Named ISC’s H.S. Senior Athletes of the YearTony Atzeni ISC Radio Account Manager Originally Published: Vol. 12 Issue 5

This season we have narrowed down those to be recognized to nine highlighted by Harrison Barnes of Ames, James Morris of Solon and Nick Moore of Iowa City West. In the end the choice for the ISC Iowa High School Senior Male Athlete of the Year was Harrison Barnes of Ames. When it comes to Iowa high school basketball, Barnes may have been the most celebrated in Iowa basketball history. Harrison led Ames to back-to-back unbeaten state championship seasons in Class 4A, setting a new 4A record for consecutive victories along the way. The North Carolina recruit was as unselfish a player as you might have ever seen with his talent as well as understanding that the game was won by a team and not an individual. Barnes was named to the McDonald’s All-American team as well as everybody’s all-state teams including the Iowa

Sports Connection. It was an easy choice to name Harrison the Iowa High School Basketball Player of the Year as well. With much of his time dedicated to basketball this past season, Barnes did qualify for the state track and field championships in the long jump and high jump.

Listed below are the finalists:Harrison Barnes, AmesAlec Crawford, WiltonMarcus Heemstra, Rock Valley (Boyden-Hull/Rock Valley)Nick Moore, Iowa City WestJames Morris, SolonRyan Powers, Calamus-WheatlandCole Welter, Don Bosco (Gilbertville)Louie Wickett, Madrid

This past 2009-2010 sports season has been one of many memories when it comes to the Iowa high school female athlete. This season the choice was narrowed down to an elite group of nine. Highlighting this group was Katie Flood of Dowling Catholic, Carli Tritz of Bishop Heelan (Sioux City), Jessica Gehrke of Iowa City West and Hannah Willms of Dike-New Hartford. In the end the choice for the ISC Iowa High School Senior Female Athlete of the Year was Hannah Willms of Dike-New Hartford. No matter what Hannah does, Hannah does it great!! Willms set new marks in track and field this past season. The all-time high jump mark is hers, setting it at the Drake Relays at 6-01. The new 400 meter dash all-time record is also now in her name, erasing a record set back in 1984 by Natasha Kaiser of Des Moines Roosevelt. Hannah also qualified for the Junior Worlds at the USA Track and Field Championships where she finished fifth in the world in the high jump. In volleyball, Willms was named to the Iowa Volleyball Coaches Association Elite All-State Teams all four seasons. Dike-New Hartford qualified for the state volleyball tournament the past three seasons and finished second in 2007 and 2008. Hannah was named to the all-tournament team all three seasons and the team captain in 2008. Willms received a scholarship to play volleyball at Iowa State University and may even continue her track and field success if time allows.

Listed below are the finalists: Morgan Casey, Northeast (Goose Lake) Katie Flood, Dowling Catholic Jessica Gehrke, Iowa City West Jordan Gronewold, Carlisle Lindsay Hoehns, Twin Cedar (Bussey)Susan Keis, Newell-FondaJessica Nichols, PerryCarli Tritz, Bishop Heelan (Sioux City)Hannah Wilms, Dike New-Hartford

Hard to Say Good-Bye to a Great Class of Young Ladies If you are a track and field fan, you truly know that when it has come to the Iowa high school girl we have been able to witness some of the greatest accomplishments over the past decade and especially when it comes to a group of seniors that finished up this weekend with outstanding closing efforts at the Iowa High School State Co-Ed Track and Field Championships at Drake Stadium in Des Moines. Seniors Katie Flood (Dowling Catholic), Jessica Gehrke (Iowa City West) and Hannah Willms (Dike-New Hartford) are three to begin with. Flood won titles in the 800, 1500, 3000 and anchored the 4x800 winning team for the Maroons while setting an all-time state record in the 3000 with her winning time of 9:27.25 and the 4A state meet record in the 1500. Flood will take her eleven state titles with her to the University of Washington next fall. Gehrke also won four titles in Class 4A, winning the 100 and 200 meter dash titles, the long jump and was the anchor on the Trojans winning 4x100 relay team. Jessica won the 100 and long jump titles in 2009 and holds the state meets best time in the 100 at 12.09 set in 2009. Willms is heading to Iowa State to play volleyball next fall. A 4-time elite all-state volleyball player, Willms was able to get your attention no matter the event she participated in. Willms set the all-time mark in the high jump at the Drake Relays back in April with her leap of 6-01.00 and won the high jump title again this year along with anchoring the winning sprint medley team that set a new 2A record. But with all the accomplishments and records, one stands out more than any. When Willms broke a 1984 record set by Natasha Kaiser of Des Moines Roosevelt in the 400 meter dash with her winning time 0f 53.96, as a track fan you had to just wonder if track could be part of her future. Many had doubts that the record would be broken and yet why should we be surprised when Hannah is the one to break that record. Knowing senior Ashlie Decker of Dowling Catholic, I am sure she would not have wanted it any other way. When Katie

Tony Atzeni ISC Radio Account Manager Originally Published: Vol. 12 Issue 3Flood talks about her high school years on the track and in cross country, Ashlie will be a name that she will no doubt always speak highly of, a person that she was able to work out with, run with and push her to her best efforts and a life-long friend. If Flood is the best in this decade, might Decker be second?

Morgan Casey is an Iowa State track recruit that won back-to-back 1500 and 3000 meter run titles in

Class 2A and holds the 2A state meet record in both events. Casey also won the past two seasons 2A cross country titles. Emily Roberts won the 400 meter dash and 400 meter hurdles titles at the state meet. The hurdles title was her second straight.

A few of the seniors that also contributed greatly to the past four years of track and field are Abby Ackerman (Central Lyon, Rock Rapids), Kaly Adkins (Earlham), Brandi Demuth (Okoboji, Milford), Ellen Dougherty (Sioux City East), Megan Fiscus (Gilbert), Michaela Haight (Iowa City West), Madie Hubbell (Des Moines Roosevelt), Slone Masters (Storm Lake), Tashina McAllister (Oelwein), Jessica Nichols (Perry), Mikeala Prusiman (Webster City), Libby Schubert (Fairfield), Emily Wandling (Ames) and Anna Wernimont (Atlantic). With the seniors graduating, the next question is

where the next generation of leaders can be found and you really do not have to look very far. Some of them

are already established beginning with Alex Gochenhour of Logan-Magnolia. Gochenhour won the 200 meter dash in a new 1A record time of 24.48 the class and the second best time in history to the legendary Debbie Esser of Woodbine set in 1975 at 24.00. Alex also won the 100 and 400 hurdles and the 100 meter dash titles. No question there are more goods things coming on the track from

Gochenhour who will be on the list of elite athletes of this decade when she completes her senior season. Shelby Houlihan of Sioux City East is another name that in the track and field world is well known and her efforts in the hurdles along with the 400, 800 and 1500 meter runs. Her name will be at the top of most lists again next season. Taylor Twedt of West Fork has verbally committed to Iowa State and with Willms graduating, will be one of the elite high jumpers that return. Twedt is versatile athlete and will return as one of the better hurdlers in the state as well. In the sprints Erin Hawkins of Des Moines Roosevelt and Agnes Sayeh of Des Moines North have established themselves along with Heaven Chandler (Columbus, Columbus Junction), McKenna Cronbaugh (Iowa City West), Sydney Howard (Fairfield), Haley Krull (Lake Mills), Rachel Peth (Waverly-Shell Rock), Aspen Rhodes (Van Meter) and Brooke Wolterstorff (Western Christian, Hull). Nicole Criner of West Des Moines Valley looks to be the next in distance runner to watch along with Anna Peer and Megan Nickels of Bettendorf. Others on the list are Anna Holdiman (Waverly-Shell Rock) who won the 3A title along with Shelby Curtis (Carlisle), Mackenzie Eland (Burlington) and Rebecca Rethwisch (Iowa City High).

In the field events some of the names to remember after this past season’s success are Ashlie Downs (West Des Moines Valley), Kayla Hemann (St. Ansgar), Maddie Manning (Ankeny), Amanda Piche (Linn-Mar, Marion), Tanna Seuferer (Chariton), Jadyn Spencer (Waterloo West), Khanishah Williams (Burlington) and Amy Wright (Earlham). As we close the book on the 2010 track and field season, it is time to congratulate all the athletes that qualified for the state meet and all on competing this season and making life memories. Thanks for the memories.

Senior Hannah Willms of Dike-New Hartford shares a moment with sophomore Taylor Twedt of West Fork at the Drake Relays.

Iowa High School Records Set at 101st Drake RelaysTony Atzeni ISC Radio Account Manager Originally Published: Vol. 12 Issue 3 The 101st Drake Relays was another record breaking event and as expected the Iowa high school girl’s field was as good as advertised as they claimed 8 of the 9 records in the high school events. The lone high school boy’s record was in the shuttle hurdle relay as Cedar Rapids Kennedy replaced Cedar Rapids Washington on the top of the record book with their 56.09 clocking. The old record was 58.28 by the Warriors. Cameron Bradley, Max Martino, Ryan Dusil and Jake Losch made up the relay record winning team. It all got started on Thursday afternoon at the blue oval when Katie Flood won the 3000 meter run title for the fourth consecutive year and beat her own record set in 2007 of 9:44.96. Flood was a start to finish leader and finished in 9:43.39. Later in the day it was Hannah Willms of Dike-New Hartford turn. Willms was the favorite in the high jump, and surpassed even her highest hopes as she set the all-time Iowa high school record and the best jump in the nation in high school this year with her Drake Relays record leap of 6-1. Willms was also the anchor of the 800 sprint medley winning team that set a Drake Relays record as well with Ashtyn Dove, Meaghan Daley. Nicole Hensely. Willms was also the winner of the 100 meter dash title. On Friday with wet and rainy conditions, Shelby Houlihan of Sioux City East set a new standard in the 800 meter run at the Drake relays with her 2:09.22 winning effort. Alex Gochenhour is always emotional and had reason to be as she set the new mark in the 100 meter hurdles, clocked

in 14.46. On Saturday Flood made her return to the track and once again gave the sold out Drake Relays crowd something to get excited about as she won the 1500 meter run title in Drake Relays record time of 4:28.30. That time is now the best in the nation as Flood broke yet another of her own 2007 records but nearly five seconds. Flood also anchored the record-breaking 4x800 relay team with Madison Bravard, Ashlie Decker and Heather Tobias. Iowa City West is always strong in the relays and once again they have a record setting team as they won the 4x100 meter relays in 48.10, crushing their own record set last year by nearly six-tenths of a second. Making up the winning team was McKennan Cronbaugh, Chloe Hogland, Shahana Williams and

Jessica Gehrke. Urbandale has always been solid in the hurdles but this season has more depth and proved it with their record setting performance in the shuttle hurdle relays with Kyla Miles, McKenna Zimmerman, Meredith Zimmerman and Maddie Kirchner. The Jayettes set a new Drake Relays and stadium record with their 64.54 run. Besides the record breakers there was plenty others that should be recognized for their efforts at the Drake Relays. For the high school boy’s and in the sprints, James Harrington of Cedar Falls had a personal best time of 11:01

and along with Austin Ebertowski of Council Bluffs Abe Lincoln will be a couple to beat as will Kyle Dunn of Linn-Mar (Marion) in the hurdles. Noah Kittleson of Indianola won his third Drake Relays title in the high jump in four tries which places him as a favorite again at state. Johnny Fuller of Glenwood won both the 1600 and 3200 meter run titles and showed plenty to everybody watching. Austin Brogan of Boone was impressive as well as he finished second in both events. Cedar Rapids Washington if not the favorite in the relay events, the Warriors are sure to be in the mix

and should score well at state. Watch for Indianola, Burlington and Pleasant Valley in the distance events along with Algona. The young ladies that performed well at Drake and will be favorites at state are Jessica Gehrke of Iowa City West. Gehrke won her second straight long jump title and is strong in the sprints as well. In the relay events, Sioux City East, Dowling Catholic and West Des Moines Valley will strong in Class 4A as will Mount Vernon/Lisbon and Grundy Center in the smaller classes. What happened at Drake only makes the Iowa High School State Co-Ed Track and Field Championships one to look forward to with the times standards that have already been set this season. The 2010 Iowa High School State Co-Ed Track and Field Championships are May 20-22 at Drake Stadium in Des Moines.

Waukon’s Gene Klinge Sets Girl’s Basketball Wins RecordDarin Swenson ISC Contributor Originally Published: Vol. 11 Issue 12 “It all comes down to Coach Klinge. He makes us work hard and he pushes us to the max.” That’s the conclusion of Waukon senior Mary Halvorson, who leads the Indians in scoring and rebounding. Gene Klinge has coached basketball for 48

years and is still going strong in his seventh year at Waukon. Going into the final week of the regular season, Klinge’s squad is ranked second in Class 3-A, with an 18-1 overall record and a perfect 10-0 mark in the Northeast Iowa Conference. The Indians lone loss this season was to Caledonia, Minnesota on December 18th, 76-57. Caledonia is the defending Double-A state champions in Minnesota. The Waukon girl’s basketball team put their coach in the all-time record book on January

2nd at the U.S. Cellular Center in Cedar Rapids. As part of the annual rivalry Saturday, the Indians beat Class 2-A eighth ranked MFL/Mar-Mac 48-38. The win gave Klinge 939 wins in his career, surpassing Bob Mullen for the state’s all-time win record. Mullen, who coached for 54 years at six schools, was a coach that had the utmost respect from the man who broke his record. “(Bob) was a real gentlemen and a good friend of mine,” said Klinge. “He taught me a lot about the game, he taught me how to be humble whether you win or lose. He was a great educator of girl’s basketball.” When asked what the record meant to him, Klinge joked, “It means that I have taken a lot of bus rides.” But it meant a lot to the members of the 2009-2010 squad to put their coach officially into the state’s coaching immortality. “We were proud to be the team that broke the record for coach,” said point guard Tatum Meyer.

While Klinge says he was proud of the accomplishment, the build up to the record breaking game led to a sense of relief when the all-time wins record finally fell. “It became a little difficult for me,” said Klinge. “The media did get in the way, and I say that kindly because they’re doing their jobs and over the years they’ve been very good to me. Although we didn’t mention the record to the kids, they had it as one of their goals for the season to give me the all-time wins record and they were able to accomplish it. I was thrilled to have the record but it was good to have it behind us.” In a bit of irony, Klinge graduated from MFL in 1955, won his first game against MFL in 1962 and became the state’s all-time win record holder against the Bulldogs in January. As for the future, Klinge says he’s taking it a season at a time. “I still enjoy going to practice and making game plans and of course game night,” said Klinge. “I still feel I have a lot of contribute, I’m feeling pretty well health wise, but I hope I’m smart enough to realize when I can no longer contribute to step aside.” Klinge brings a style to coaching that isn’t seen too much anymore. “I try to keep them down a little bit,” commented the veteran coach when asked about his approach. “If kids play for me they probably understand they haven’t played the perfect game yet. This team needs to continue to work hard because we’re not overly talented and if we don’t play hard, we aren’t going to get results.” But it’s a style his players are okay with. “He does yell a lot, but when he does it makes you work hard and perform better,” said Meyer. “Day in and day out you just show up and want to work for him,” said Halvorson. “We love having him here in Waukon. We looked up to him when he won the state title in his first year here (2004). He means a lot to all of us.” Logan Hjerled moved into the district two years ago when her father Gavin became the head wrestling

coach. Logan says the passion Klinge brings to his job is infectious. “It’s exciting to play for him. He gets intense. He loves the game and in turn that makes you love it.” The senior class says a motivating factor in their approach to basketball was the 2004 state champion team. “When they won it in 2004, we said at that time that’s going to be us someday, “said Halvorson. “This is our senior year so this is our last shot at accomplishing the goal.” Klinge says while the intensity the team brings to the floor is similar, that’s where the comparisons probably end. “I personally don’t think we’re quite as talented as that team was,” a reflective Klinge said. “We shot better from the outside that year, we’re bigger and we’re a bit more balanced then we are now.” That said, Klinge says he has enjoyed his 2009-2010 group. “They sure do work hard and they’re a real fun group to work with” The Indians will open the tournament against rival Decorah on February 17th. After knocking off the Vikings by 27 points in December in Decorah, their conference rivals took the Indians to overtime in early February in Waukon, before the second ranked team in 3-A prevailed 57-54. The Indians were forced to come back from four points down inside of a minute to play in regulation to force overtime. “That game made us realize we’re not unbeatable, “said Meyer. “It’s good to have games like that, and the Caledonia loss at times to help improve the focus.” Ever the coach, Klinge realizes despite the success for his team to this point, the margin for error is not large. “Our perimeter shooting will have to improve,” said Klinge. “We’re not a big team so we need to find bodies and box players out. Without those aspects of the game improving, we’re just an average ball club.” But the season for the Indians and the career for coach Klinge, in both wins and longevity, have been anything but.

2010 Year In ReviewIowa City West’s Nick Moore become only the 19th four-time champion in Iowa high school wrestling history came in the 160 pound title match with Spencer BeLieu (Indianola). Moore came into the 2010 state meet championship match with a 22-match pin streak. BeLieu was able to end that streak but could not stop Moore from making history. Moore prevailed 11-6 and completed the season with a perfect 48-0 record this season. Moore finished his career with a near-perfect mark of 183-1. He is currently wrestling on scholarship at the University of Iowa.

After wining the Class 4A title last year, the Ames Little Cyclones had the target on their backs once again in 2010. The pressure was on to win another championship behind stars Harrison Barnes and Doug McDermott. Not only did they defeat Southeast Polk High School, 47-37,, but along they way they set a new standard for other teams to aim for with 53 consecu-tive vitories. McDermott tallied 40 points on 17 for 25 shooting to lead Ames and was named to the 4A All-Tournament Team. Barnes was named the 4A All-Tournament Team Captain.

The Solon Spartans may have moved up from Class 2A to 3A but the change had little effect on the team’s winning tradition. Solon found itself paired up against perennial 3A power Bishop Heelan but would not be denied a fourth straight title, winning by a score of 45-7.

Quarterback JJ Hanus had a monster game, totalling 313 yard on offense. Of those yards, 210 came through the air and 103 came on the ground.

Ed Thomas (Aplington-Parkersburg)

Ed Thomas meant everything to Aplington-Parkersburg High School. Not only was he a successful football coach, but he had a way of brining out the best in those who played for him, as shown in the rebuilding efforts after the tornado hit Parkersburg in 2008. He preached the important things in life and how they relate to sports.

ESPN honored Thomas by naming him the recipient of the 2010 Arthur Ashe Award, an award given to the nation’s most-courageous figure in sports. Thomas certainly fit the bill for the award, as his family said as they accepted the award on his behalf.

Thomas led with his faith, then his values of family and football. Above all else, he taught those under his direction to always try to do the right thing.

Thomas Receives Arthur Ashe ESPY AwardPanthers Stun No. 1 Kansas

The Northern Iowa Panthers stole the national spotlight when they defeat-ed the No. 1-ranked, 69-67, Kansas Jayhawks in the second round of the 2010 NCAA Tournament. No Panther fan, or Iowa sports fan for that mat-ter, will ever forget the last-second heroics by Ali Farokhmanesh as he put up yet another clutch three-pointer to steal the game from the Jayhawks.

Later, UNI would receive an ESPY award from ESPN for Best Upset of the Year.

The Panthers’ spectacular season would end in the next round, as Michigan State represented too much for UNI, beating the Panthers 59-52.

But UNI’s trip to the Sweet 16 and the many photos of Farokhmanesh sinking his shot will be forever engrained in the minds of every Iowa sports fan—and many sports fans around to see it will be sure to tell the generations to come of the historic run by the 2009-2010 UNI Panthers.

Martensdale-St. Mary’s Ends Perfect Season, Wins Class 1A Baseball Championship

Megan Gilbert (Tripoli)

Ali Stark (Mount Vernon)

Liz Skotwoski (Mount Vernon)

Ethan Westphal was dominant on the mound for Martensdale-St. Marys through-out the Class 1A baseball playoffs. Westphal started and won all three games played for the Blue Devils, including the championship game againt the Remsen St. Mary’s Hawks. Martensdale-St. Mary’s won 3-0.

Remsen St. Mary’s did not go down easily, though. They threatened in the bottom of the fourth and bottom of the seventh innings. The Hawks collected three hits in the bottom of the fourth, but after a confusing strikeout-caught stealing double play, Westphal was able to get himself out of the jam by striking out Cody Colling. In the seventh, the Hawks picked up two hits but Westphal recorded three strikeouts to end the game.

Westphal ended the season16-0 and the Blue Devils recorded a perfect record of 43-0 for the season.

Top-ranked Tripoli captured its third-consecutive state title and the ninth in school history as the Panthers topped Janesville 25-18, 25-16, 25-15 in the Class 1A championship match. This marks the third time that Tripoli has won three consecutive titles. The Panthers won state crowns in 1999, 2001, and 2001 and 2003, 04, 05. 1A All-Tournament captain Megan Gilbert had 26 kills and 10 digs for the Panthers, who finished the year with a 36-5 mark.

Mount Vernon captured the Class 3A girls track title this spring. Highlighting the Mustang’s domi-nance at the event were victories in the 4 x 800 Meter Relay and 4x 400 Meter Relay. Holly Salz-brenner, Karly Cochrane, Kristin Canning and Alex Wilson made up both teams. The team set a new record in the 4 x 800 with a time of 9:17.72. Salzbrenner also set a new Class 3A State Meet record in her 400 Meter Hurdles victory with a time of 1:02.53.

The giant killers from Mount Vernon completed a remarkable ride through the postseason by claiming the ultimate prize. The unranked Mustangs rallied from eight points down late in the thrid quarter to beat No. 2 Manson-Northwest Webster 59-56 in the Class 2A Championship. It was the first state title in girls basketball for the school.

Ali Stark and her Mount Vernon teammates cemented its legacy as one of Iowa’s great volleyball teams by capturing the Class 3A state crown with a 17-25, 25-20, 25-11, 25-13 victory over West Delaware Saturday. The win marked the second-straight state crown for the Mustangs, who won the

Class 2A title last year. Mount Vernon ends the season with a perfect 41-0 record. The Mustangs have also won 56-consecutive matches and finish the year with a set record of 98-3.

Dowling Catholic did it again by claiming the team title for the fourth consecutive season. The Maroons prooved that they were still the team to beat, even after stars Katie Flood and Ashlie Decker graduated. The Maroons were led by Tanelle Berard, Karrisa Schweizer, Vanessa Miller, Allie Vaughn, Diane Hubbell, Nicole Svendson and Addie Schumacher. Iowa City High was second followed by West Des Moines Valley, Pleasant Valley and Cedar Falls.

Shelby Houlihan of Sioux City East won the individual title in Class 4A, clocking in at 13:40. She was followed by Allison Gregg (Cedar Falls), Rebecca Rethwisch (Iowa City High), Tanelle Berard (Dowling Catholic) and Karrisa Schweizer (Dowling Catholic).

Lisa Koll reached the collegiate track summit as an Iowa State senior. She won three NCAA national championships – the 5,000-meter run both indoors and outdoors, and the 10,000 outdoors for a second time – and earned the 2010 Honda Sports Award as the nation’s top collegiate female athlete in the sport in the process. And after finishing second in the 10,000 at the USA Track and Field Outdoor Championships at Drake Stadium in June, she signed a contract soon after to run professionally for Nike. She’s now competing with some the world’s best runners in some of the world’s exotic locations. And she’s doing Nike photo shoots in New York City. That’s a pretty amazing “small-town girl does good” tale for a Ft. Dodge girl who never won a high school state championship. But it was a much different story during Koll’s junior season at Iowa State. After winning the 2008 NCAA 10,000 championship at Drake Stadium, she suffered through an injury-plagued season. And it was an equally exhausting year academically – her first as a student in Iowa State’s veterinary medicine program after graduating summa cum laude in three years with her bachelor’s degree in biology. Koll knew she was

burning the candle at both ends and it was taking a toll. “I definitely wasn’t getting enough sleep,” she said. “I was really focused on school. It was my first year of vet school and trying to do that well and run well and trying to do everything, I realized that I couldn’t. I couldn’t give 100 percent to both running and school because something was always being sacrificed. And I kind of sacrificed the running for the school at that point.” A soul-searching summer That realization resulted in a soul-searching summer for Koll. She realized she needed to make some changes in order to make another run at being a national champion again as a Cyclone senior. “I wasn’t ready to hang up the spikes and just be happy with whatever happened in my last year,” Koll said. “I really wanted to have a great last year and run professionally and kind of just have faith that it was all going to work out because it was kind of a really big risk. I worked really hard to get into vet school and it’s something I was really passionate about. So I had to decide which one is going to be more important to me at the moment. And running has a timeline and I’m not always going to be able to go back to running, but I can always go back to school. “So I talked to the dean and everyone at vet

school was really accommodating,” she continued. “They did everything I asked, so I got a little bit easier schedule with school. I was able to go get my rest and I really kind of paid attention to the little things a lot more.” And by paying attention to the little things, Koll was able to do big things on the track. In addition to the aforementioned national championships and Honda Award, she shattered the all-time collegiate record in the 10,000 (31:18.07). The 11-time All-American capped the most decorated career in Iowa State women’s track history – one that was most unexpected when she arrived on campus. Koll had an initial goal of becoming an All-American once in her collegiate career. So when she did it as a cross country sophomore, everything changed.

Koll smiles as she finishes in first place in the 10k at the NCAA outdoor meet.

Good January 1 - February 28, 2011.

“I really think things started clicking my sophomore year in college,” Koll said. “I think I was like 99th at Griak (the Roy Griak Invitational in Minneapolis) my freshman year. And then my sophomore year, Griak was my first race and I was like seventh. So there was this huge improvement in that one year. “And when I remembered that first year, I was like ‘Oh my gosh, I can’t even imagine running any faster than I just ran,’” she continued. “But you know, things change and the new normal changes year to year. But the more you train, the more you get under yours.” Koll’s new normal became the nation’s top collegiate distance runner by the time her Iowa State career was done. And her growing legion of

fans came out to cheer her on at Drake’s USA Championships, a race that was believed to be her final race in a Cyclone uniform. Wearing Cyclone colors abroad But Koll decided she needed a little more time in Cardinal and Gold as she began running abroad. “I’d like to think that that race [the USA Championship 10,000 at Drake] was my last race in an Iowa State jersey, but it wasn’t,” Koll said. “I

mean technically it wasn’t, but emotionally it really was. “I hadn’t signed [professionally] and I was still deciding between companies at that time, so offers were still being looked at and some difficult decisions were still being made at that point,” she continued. “So, I wore an Iowa State jersey for two races in Europe and then got my Nike kit in Paris. So it was kind of cool to be wearing an Iowa State jersey in exotic places like Crete, Greece and Belgium.” She now hopes to wear a new jersey – the red, white and blue of the USA – and qualify for the 2012 London Summer Olympic Games. She’ll now do the bulk of her training at Nike’s Portland, Ore. facility.

While that keeps her close to her boyfriend Kiel Uhl – a Des Moines Roosevelt grad and Iowa State distance standout who’s now in grad school at the University of Oregon -- it’s a long way from her modest Ft. Dodge beginning. And her newfound fame is even hard for her to fathom. “It’s been crazy and it’s definitely unbelievable when I think about where I was at last year at this time, it just goes to show that so much can change in a year,” Koll said. “And when things aren’t going well – not going as expected – a lot can change in a year. And if you just have faith and confidence that things are going to change, then things can turn around.” And for other Iowa girls who would like to follow in her footsteps, Koll offer this advice: “Just enjoy the process,” she said. “Enjoy getting out every day and going for a run – and just being consistent with that running. And really, most people who have gotten to that point who are pretty good at distance running, you must just love doing it. So just enjoy doing it every day and enjoy seeing yourself getting better. “And even when things aren’t going well, it doesn’t mean you’re not going to come back and do other things in the future,” Koll continued. “Everyone struggles through injury and plateaus and you’ve just got to make it through those and having the confidence that it’s going to come back is crucial. “So just love what you do and enjoy doing it for as long as you can, and take it as it comes.”

UNI Captures 2nd Straight MVC Championship

The University of Northern Iowa men’s basketball team captured its second straight State Farm Missouri Valley Conference basketball title with a 67-52 win over the Wichita State Shockers on Sunday at Scottrade Center. The Panthers (28-4 overall) were powered by a game-high 24 points from tournament’s Most Outstanding Player Kwadzo Ahelegbe. Ahelegbe posted a game-high 24 points on 5-of-10 shooting from the field and 12-of-14 from the free throw line. Redshirt freshman Jake Koch knocked in 13 points on 5-of-7 shooting, which included 3-of-4 from 3-point land. UNI jumped out to an early 12-5 advantage behind a pair of threes from Jake Koch. But the Shockers responded with an 11-0 run to take a 16-12 lead with 9:09 left in the first half. A 3-pointer from junior guard Kerwin Dunham gave the lead back to the Panthers at 17-16 with 7:32 left before intermission. Jake Koch’s third three-pointer of the first half gave UNI a 21-18 edge with 5:24 on the first-half clock. But a putback jumper by WSU’s Aaron Ellis and a 3-pointer by Clevin Hannah put the Shockers back on top, 23-21. The first half saw nine lead changes with the final one coming with two seconds on the clock as WSU’s

Demetric Williams buried a 3-pointer to give the Shcokers a 31-28 halftime lead. WSU eventually stretched its lead to six points

at 39-33 with 16:24 to go in the game. But WSU would not score another field goal until the 4:14 mark when Hannah made a 3-pointer. The Panthers went on a 23-3 run during that 12-minute stretch and opened up a 56-42 lead over the second-seeded Shockers. The Panthers kept the Shockers at a nine point margin or more the rest of the way and MVC Sixth Man of the Year Lucas O’Rear closed the scoring by banking in a 3-pointer with 8.1 seconds left to make it 67-52. “This what we’ve been working on all season,” O’Rear said. “Wichita State is a good team. We’ve had battles with them and split during the season. We knew it was going to be a battle but we just got a couple more balls and came out on top.”

“It’s been a long time coming,” Ali Farokhmanesh said. “We came out and sort of lost our cause for a bit, but I think we learned from that and I think we moved past those things. It feels great to end things here and now in St. Louis with a championship.” “I’m in there with some of the greatest players of the Missouri Valley Conference’s history,” Ahelegbe said about being named the tournament MVP. “It’s an honor and I jus twant to take it in right now. I’m just honored to be there.”

2-0 lead with a takedown in the first 30 seconds. Palmer escaped once in the first period and once in the second to tie the score at 2-2. Despite some offensive shots, neither wrestler scored in the third period and Metcalf converted 1:35 in riding time to the winning point. The Hawkeye senior ends the season with a 36-1 mark and his three-year Iowa career (2008-10) as a two-time NCAA and Big Ten Champion and three-time all-American with a 108-3 record. In 2008, he earned the Dan Hodge Trophy, which is annually presented to the nation’s top collegiate wrestler, and the Jesse Owen Big Ten Male Athlete of the Year award. His 47 career pins ranks seventh in school history, and his career winning percentage (.973) ranks second. He posted a 68-1 career dual record, going 24-0 in Big Ten duals and scoring 346 team points in dual competition. The Davison, MI, native is one of four wrestlers in conference history to be named Big Ten Wrestler of the Week. He was also a two-time Big Ten Championships Outstanding Wrestler, 2008 Big Ten Wrestler of the Year and 2008 NCAA Division I Championships Outstanding Wrestling. Borschel had a strong showing en route to his first NCAA title, handing undefeated #1 seed Mack Lewnes of Cornell his first loss of the season with a 6-2 decision. The second-seeded Hawkeye opened the dual with a takedown, which was the first one that Lewnes allowed the entire season. Borschel rode the Big Red junior the rest of the

OMAHA, Neb. -- The University of Iowa wrestling team crowned three NCAA champions and won its third-straight national team title Saturday night at the Qwest Center in Omaha, NE. Iowa’s point total of 134.5 ranks 10th in NCAA history and ties for seventh in school history. Cornell placed second with 90 points. Iowa’s victory margin of 44.5 points ranks ninth in NCAA history and eighth at Iowa. The Hawkeyes crowned eight all-Americans for the 12th time in school history and the first time since 1997, helping the team win its 23rd NCAA team title. “I’m very happy and pleased for my entire team and coaching staff,” said Head Coach Tom Brands. “We knew we had a good team coming in, and the hard part was keeping up our intensity and maintaining our objectives throughout the year. While our entire team did a wonderful job all year, our 10 NCAA qualifiers did an especially good job and I’m proud of all of them. Our three champions put me in a much better mood than when we left the championships last year. With all our seniors, people are probably writing us off for next year, but our stable isn’t exactly empty.” Hawkeye senior Brent Metcalf (149) captured his second NCAA title, while senior Jay Borschel (174) and redshirt freshman Matt McDonough (125) each won their first. It is the first time that Iowa crowned three individual champions since Mark Ironside (134), Jeff McGinness (142) and Joe Williams (167) in 1998. McDonough is Iowa’s first 125-pound national champion and Borschel is the first for the Hawkeyes at 174. Hawkeye senior Daniel Dennis (133) and sophomore Montell Marion (141) each placed second at their respective weight classes, while seniors Ryan Morningstar (165), Phillip Keddy (184) and Dan Erekson (Hwt.) placed seventh to earn all-America honors. Metcalf collected his second NCAA title with a 3-2 victory over #1 seed Lance Palmer of Ohio State. The second-seeded Hawkeye senior held a 4-1 record against the Buckeye senior, but Palmer won the last meeting (9-3) at the 2010 Big Ten finals. Metcalf jumped out to a

first period to accumulate 1:53 of riding time. Lewnes chose down to start the second period and Borschel added to his riding time before Lewnes escaped to make the score 2-1. Borschel held off two offensive charges by Lewnes to end the period. Lewnes intentionally released the Hawkeye senior to start the third period and Borschel scored another takedown to go up 5-2. Borschel rode Lewnes out the rest of the match, tallying 3:46 of riding time. The Hawkeye senior is one of 19 Iowa wrestlers in school history to post an undefeated season record, going 37-0. He ends his three-year Iowa career (2008-10) with a 98-10 record, winning the 2010 Big Ten and 2009 Midlands titles. He is a two-time all-American, three-time NCAA qualifier and three-time Big Ten and Midlands placewinner. Borschel went 62-3 in dual matches and 21-1 in Big Ten duals, scoring 265 team points in dual competition. He led the team in collegiate wins (37), dual wins (23), collegiate and dual winning percentage (1.000) and fastest fall (0:13) this season. McDonough won his first NCAA title with a 3-1 decision over Iowa State redshirt freshman Andrew Long in the finals. It was only the second time in NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships history that two redshirt freshman have met in a national final. After a scoreless first period, Long chose the down position and escaped to take a 1-0 lead. McDonough took the fifth-seeded Cyclone down and rode him for the rest of the period to go up 2-1. The third-seeded Hawkeye chose the down position and escaped to make the score 3-1, beating Long for the fourth time this season. McDonough was warned for stalling near the end of the match, but held on for the win. He ends the season with a 37-1 season record, earning his first all-America honor. He was undefeated at 23-0 and scored 104 team points in dual competition. The 2010 Big Ten Freshman of the Year and conference runner-up at 125, McDonough scored bonus points in 28 of his 37 wins. He led the Hawkeyes in major decisions (15), collegiate wins (37), dual wins (23) and dual winning percentage (1.000), and also won his first Midlands title this season.

Despite Expected “Rebuilding”, Cyclone Women Hit 23 WinsErin Smith Associate Director, Iowa State Athletics Communications Originally Published: Vol. 12 Issue 1 The Iowa State women’s basketball team graduated three starters and lost 62 percent of its scoring from its 2008-09 NCAA Elite Eight squad. With the loss of eight total players, everyone expected the 2009-10 Cyclone team to be in full rebuilding mode. Head coach Bill Fennelly has done his rebuilding Extreme Makeover style. In a season when relatively little was expected of the Cyclones, they earned a second-place finish in the rugged Big 12 Conference, their best finish since winning the title in the 1999-2000 season. Iowa State has won a school-record tying 23 regular-season contests and has gone 11-5 in the Big 12. Senior point guard Alison Lacey is the number one reason for the Cyclones’ success this season, but three ISU freshmen posts and a number of other role players have played an integral role in the quick resurgence as well. Lacey has had her best season in a Cyclone uniform and should be in line for a number of All-America honors. She is a finalist for the Nancy Lieberman Award, an honor for the nation’s top point guard. The Canberra, Australia, native has been the engine making Iowa State go all season. She is the only player in ISU history and only the seventh in the history of the Big 12 Conference to record 1,500 points, 500 rebounds and 500 assists. She also recorded Iowa State’s second triple-double in school history in the game against Iowa, turning in 19 points, 13 assists and 11 rebounds. The guard has led the nation in assist-to-turnover ratio and ranks in the top 10 in assists with an average of 6.3 per game. She ranks fifth in the Big 12 in scoring with 16.5 points per contest. More important than any statistical category, Lacey has been the glue holding Iowa State’s offense together and ISU’s defensive stopper on the other end of the court. She has either scored or assisted on 45.2 percent of Iowa State’s points this season, despite missing three full games. “I don’t know if there is a player in the country that is more valuable to their team than Alison Lacey’s been for our team,” Fennelly said. “She’s put up statistical numbers that are off the charts that have never been done in a

program that has been so good. Most importantly she has put us in a position where we’ve won 20 games, we’re in the top 15 in the country. I equate her to Peyton Manning. The Indianapolis Colts are not in the Super Bowl without Peyton Manning; Iowa State women’s basketball has no chance to be where we are without Alison Lacey.” Before the season began, Fennelly said that for his team to have a successful campaign, Lacey and junior Kelsey Bolte would have to have all-conference seasons. Bolte has certainly played a large role in Iowa State’s success as well. The guard has averaged 12.6 points per game and has hit a team-high 76 three-pointers. In Iowa State’s home win over Kansas State, Bolte became the 22nd player in school history to reach the 1,000 career point mark. The freshmen post players presented the biggest question mark for the Cyclones entering the season, and they have answered with an exclamation point. Anna Prins, Chelsea Poppens and Amanda Zimmerman have each played a crucial role in Iowa State’s winning campaign. Prins was named the Big 12 Freshman of the Week after scoring 20 points in the season opener vs. Florida Atlantic. Despite missing six games with a viral infection, Prins has posted 11 games with double figure scoring. Poppens has been the biggest surprise of the season, leading the Cyclones on the boards with seven rebounds a contest. She has tallied four double-doubles and has registered double-figure rebounds six times, including games of 16 (Missouri) and 17 (at Oklahoma State). Zimmerman has also played her role in the success. The Huxley, Iowa, native was named Big 12 Freshman of the Week after scoring 14 points to go with five rebounds in Iowa State’s overtime win at No. 20 Texas. She pulled down

the offensive board and dished the assist on Lacey’s three-pointer that sent the game into an extra period. She also posted 15 points in ISU’s win over No. 11 Baylor. Senior Denae Stuckey has defined the term “role player”

for the Cyclones this season. The smallest player on the court, Stuckey has led ISU in rebounding 10 times and ranks as its second-leading rebounder with 6.2 boards a game. Her hustle and defense have earned her a permanent spot in the starting lineup. All of the pieces have come together for Fennelly to register his 10th season with 20+ wins at Iowa State. The Cyclones have climbed in the national polls, ranking as high as No. 12 at one point this season. That ranking matched ISU’s highest mark since the 2001-02 regular season. Fennelly has always broken the season into segments: nonconference, Big 12, Big 12 Tournament and NCAA Tournament play. The Cyclones made it through the nonconference portion with flying colors, going 12-1, with its only setback coming on the road at Drake.

Iowa State’s second-place finish in the Big 12 Conference confirms its success in the league portion of the schedule. The Cyclones have two very important segments of the season remaining. Iowa State will travel to Kansas City, Mo., for the Big 12 Championship, March 11-14 at Municipal Auditorium. The Cyclones, as the No. 2 seed, will play at 5 p.m. Friday, March 12, and will face the winner of Oklahoma State and Kansas. The Cyclones have advanced to the semifinals in each of the last three seasons, and they will try to keep that streak alive and advance to the title game for the first time since the 2007 campaign. Iowa State will return home to play host to the NCAA Championship First and Second rounds at Hilton Coliseum, March 21 and 23.

Fans of women’s basketball had a lot to cheer about this year in Iowa. Lisa Bluder led the Iowa Hawkeyes to a first-round victory over Rutgers in the NCAA Tournament but it was an even more special year for two Iowa colleges and one university with strong ties to the state. The women’s teams of Northwestern College (Orange City) and Kirkwood Community College (Cedar Rapids) won championships at the NAIA Division II and NJCAA Division II levels, respectively. Emporia State University (Emporia, Kan.) claimed the NCAA Division II championship while led by two former Iowa prep standouts, Cassondra Boston and Alli Volkens.

Northwestern Win’s Second in Three Years Iowa high schools were well-represented on the Raiders’ national championship squad. Nine former Iowa preps filled out this year’s roster, led by junior Becca Hurley (Des Moines East), senior Randa Hulstein (Sioux Center), freshman Kendra De Jong (Unity Christian) and sophomore Kami Kuhlmann (Charter Oak-Ute). Northwestern head coach Earl Woudstra said it felt great to be a national champion. “This is really gratifying because it was a fun group of young ladies who filled their roles well,” Woudstra said. He added that next season will be “another fun season”, as the Raiders return a strong nucleus next season but will miss Hulstein. “She’s just such a great competitor and a really versatile athlete,” Woudstra said of Hulstein, who was named a second team NAIA All-American. Hulstein led the team with 61.7 percent shooting, 8.7 rebounds per game and 40 blocks. She also averaged 13.1 points per game. Northwestern will look to the first team All-American and NAIA MVP Hurley to lead next year’s team, which includes second team All-GPAC selections De Jong and Kuhlmann. Hurley paced the Raiders with 16.6 points per game, 157 assists and 81 steals. Woudstra said the return of Hurley will help the team improve in some areas. “She’s the kind of

kid that could probably play at another level but desired to play at a Christian colllege,” Woudstra said. Hurley said she would have regretted playing at a higher level because she just wanted to enjoy the game and form lasting relationships with her teammates. She also wanted to be close to her family. “I wanted them to be able to come to my games and stay in connection with them,” Hurley said.

Four in a row for Kirkwood The Kirkwood Eagles rolled to their fourth-straight NJCAA Division II National Championship with a 37-1 record. The bad news for the Eagles’ opponents is that the streak isn’t getting old.

Head coach Kim Muhl said the excitement is just now setting in. “Everything goes by so quickly, you really don’t have the time to enjoy it,” Muhl said. “I’m starting to enjoy it a little more and appreciate all the games we won.” Muhl said it’s great to be four-peat champions, even if the Eagles’ competitors aren’t exactly singing their praises. “It’s really not that easy,” Muhl said. “We worked really hard. It’s OK to get excited. It’s a unique feeling.” Many national championship teams feature one or two standout players.

Not Coach Muhl’s team. According to him, so many contributors are what make the Eagles special. “We’re such a balanced basketball team. Our style is we’ve always had kids contribute at different facets.” The Eagles featured a balanced squad led by All-Americans and native Iowans Kalli Hansen (Olin) and Staci Gillum (Waukee). Gillum and Hansen were first and second on the team averaging 10.8 and 9.3 points per game, respectively. Joining the pair on the All-Region XI team were fellow Iowans Kari Goodchild (Van Horne) and Gillum’s high school teammate Andi Waugaman. Ashley Britts of Milwaukee,

Wisconsin and Danielle Hellickson of St. Louis, Missouri were also All-Region selections. Muhl said he has faced the challenge of finding enough playing time for Kirkwood’s talent-heavy pool of players. He said the challenge has gotten harder with so many skilled athletes nowadays. Muhl must have figured out a solution, though. In January he recorded the 600th win of his career. Muhl’s career record stands at 624-112.

Two Iowans Lead Emporia StateEmporia State University had not won a national championship in any sport since 1984. Thanks to former Iowa prep standouts Cassondra Boston (Des Moines Hoover) and Alli Volkens (Gladbrook-Reinbeck), the Lady Hornets are back on the national map. Boston, a senior, said that she and her ESU teammates

have been aiming for the title for a while now. “That’s what I’ve strived to get,” Boston said. “That’s been our goal every year since I got here.” Boston received All-American, first team All-Conference, Mid-American Intercollegiate Athletics Association Player of the Year and NCAA All-Tournament team honors. She led ESU with 19.3 points per game (674 total), 43 steals, 145 assists and 89 3-pointers. Joining Boston on the All-Tournament team was the junior, Volkens, who was also an All-Conference honorable mention. Volkens was the Lady Hornets’ defensive threat, pacing

the team with 7.4 rebounds per game (251 total) and 56 blocks. She was also the team’s surest shooter, sinking 54 percent of her shots. Boston said she and Volkens have “always just kind of been the two kids from Iowa” on the squad. “Alli’s a really good player,” Boston said. “We’re just a really good inside-out threat.”

In his time in Ames, Iowa State head football coach Paul Rhoads has turned around a program that was 9-27 over the span of three years before he arrived. Coming into his first year, the only expectation for the Cylcones was that they were going to be horrible—they had, in fact, lost 10 games in a row. A 6-6 record that led to an Insight Bowl victory against Minnesota didn’t just prove everybody wrong, it proved that the Iowa State Cyclones were in the hands of a man who could turn the program around and start winning regularly. Part of Rhodes’ success has come from his ability to teach his team that they can play with and beat any team they come up against. Last year, Nebraska was the fallen giant. This year, it was the Texas Longhorns who found themselves victims of Paul Rhoads and the Iowa State Cyclones. It was déjà vu in the locker room after the game. Paul Rhoads gave his team another uplifting, pride-inspiring post-game speech and expressed to the media after the game how much the victory meant to him. “I’m very humbled to be sitting here, coaching this program, on a day of a historic win for Iowa State, the first win over (the) University of Texas,” Rhoads said. “That’s the last school in the Big 12 that we had to beat. We’re proud of that accomplishment.” Rhoads recognized all involved in the

Texas Latest Giant To Fall Against Paul Rhoads and Cyclones

winning effort, thanking the coaching staff and players. “Just an unbelievable effort to coach, to continue to teach, continue to develop game plans and continue to keep the guys focused and trusting in what we were doing,” said Rhoads of the job his staff had done after a couple tough losses to Oklahoma and Utah. Rhoads said the players had also put in the time and heart needed. “To stay focused, to persevere, to trust in that coaching, to go back and work everyday, believe you can win a football game over the 22-ranked team in the country in one of the most traditional places to play college football, a huge, huge credit to our football players,” Rhoads said. Rhoads couldn’t find the words to describe how proud he was of the team. “I don’t know if I can express it. I hope my face does, I hope my voice does. They do the physical work—and they work. They do it week-after-week-after-week,” Rhoads said. Iowa State may not make it to a bowl game this season but in the face of the nation’s

toughest schedule, they can at least boast five wins—each won of them fought for and earned. Next year doesn’t look much better in terms of schedule. Seven of the Cyclones’ opponents next season are currently in the top 22 of the BCS standings. But Rhoads plans to keep the program moving forward. “We’re just trying to take them one game at a time,” Rhoads said. “We’re trying to build our program one day at a time. It’s easy to brush that off as coach speak. And it is (coach speak). But it’s much more powerful than that when your kids believe it to be true and act upon it. And our guys are acting upon that.”

Iowa Western Captures School’s First Ever World Series TitleDon Kohler Iowa Western Community College Vice President Marketing/Public Relations Originally Published: Vol. 12 Issue 4

Iowa Western Community College faced what appeared to be an uphill battle with the majestic Rocky Mountains hovering over beautiful Sam Suplizio Field in Grand Junction, Colo., home to the JUCO Baseball World Series. The Reivers, ranked No. 5 nationally, met the challenge by taking down powerhouse San Jacinto, Texas, twice in a two-day span to claim the school’s first-ever JUCO World Series Title. A two out single by Brandon Bass scored Ivan Hartle in the bottom of the eighth inning to give Iowa Western a 5-4 lead over No. 1 San Jacinto, and Taylor Eikenberry came on in the top of the ninth to shut the door on the Gators to start a wild celebration in Grand Junction. Iowa Western is the first team from the Northern District to ever win the JUCO World Series Championship. It was Iowa Western’s 12th overall appearance at the JUCO World Series, and its fourth consecutive trip to Grand Junction. The tournament title capped a remarkable season for veteran Coach Marc Rardin and his Reivers. Iowa Western finished 51-12 on the season, including Region and District titles along the way. The hot-hitting Reivers closed the season strong, winning 44 of its final 48 games. Hartle was named Tournament MVP after hitting .400 for the tournament (10-25) with six RBI. He led all players in the tournament with 21 total bases and tied for the lead in runs scored (10) and home runs (3). He was also named the Defensive Player of the Tournament via his 1.00 fielding percentage after 25 chances at second base, including four

double plays. Hartle also was the Rawlings Gold Glove Award winner for Division I Junior College and was Easton Defensive Player of the Year. Despite being credited with just one victory, Eikenberry was one of just three pitchers named to the All-Tournament Team. The freshman from Sterling, Ill., threw more innings than any other hurler in the tournament (15.2) and posted the lowest ERA (2.87) of any player that tossed more than 10 innings. Along with Hartle and Eikenberry, Brent Seifert and Anthony Bemboom also were named to the All-Tournament Team for the Reivers. Bemboom, who had a dominating World Series performance at catcher, has been invited to travel with the NJCAA All

Star team to the Netherlands to play in an international all-star tournament. Rardin, who has been at the helm at IWCC since 2002, raised his overall coaching record to 351-117 (.751 winning percentage). Rardin’s conference and regional record is an impressive 172-27 (.864 winning percentage) and he is 13-2 in district tournament play. Rardin has posted a winning season eight

straight years and has posted six straight regional tourney championships and four consecutive district

titles. Rardin said he has a special group of players in 2010. “This is a special team in so many ways,” Rardin said. “We won the National Championship and had to beat two of the most talented junior college teams in the country in Southern Nevada and twice against San Jacinto. Both of those teams had numerous guys taken in the Major League Baseball draft. The Reivers had no one taken in the MLB draft. That’s a tribute to team play with a goal in mind and going out and accomplishing it.” Rardin added that his team was focused on getting the job done in Grand Junction. “Winning a National Championship takes focus, drive, planning and taking advantage of breaks that occur during

games in the tournament,” he said. “We did all of that - we had great scouting reports and our guys went out and executed perfectly that game plan, we made all the routine plays defensively and got some crucial 2out hits when they were greatly needed to continue playing. This team was a group of guys that coaches try to create every year and very rarely accomplish it. They all put the egos aside, they were here for each other and they all had one unified goal. That just doesn’t happen a lot. Coaches can work their whole career and never get a team to do what this one did. They really did have one heart beat throughout the entire postseason. Now, they all go their separate ways and move on with their college careers, but they will have this 2010 season as a memory that they will take with them forever.”

The Iowa Cubs ended the 2010 season tied for first place in the American Conference Northern Division. The season-ending loss to Memphis on September 6 gave the Redbirds a playoff berth since their division record was better than the Cubs. The Cubs posted an 82-62 record, going 39-33 at home and 43-29 on the road, tying the franchise record for road wins. Iowa finished 20 games over .500 in the 16-team Pacific Coast League. This season 521,669 fans came to watch the Iowa Cubs play at Principal Park. It was the sixth time in seven years that Iowa has seen over a half million fans come through the gates.

Final Team Stats Nine players made their Major League debuts with Chicago this year: Darwin Barney, Andrew Cashner, Welington Castillo, Casey Coleman, Thomas Diamond, Scott Maine, Marcos Mateo, Brian Schlitter and the September call-up, Brad Snyder. The Iowa Cubs made 104 roster moves this year. John Grabow, Ted Lilly and Carlos Zambrano were on Iowa’s roster at some point this season as Major League rehabs. Over the course of the 144-game season, six Iowa Cubs received Player of the Week honors: Brady Snyder (April 19-25), Andrew Cashner (May 17-23), Mitch Atkins (May 31-June 6), Bryan LaHair (July 26-August 1), Micah Hoffpauir (August 2-8) and Jason Dubois (August 30-Sept. 6). Hoffpauir also holds the team’s season-high hitting streak, when he had a hit in 22 straight games from July 21-August 15. Snyder and Barney were named to the 2010 All-PCL Team at the end of the season. Snyder’s 106 RBI were second-best in the PCL and his 37 doubles ranked fifth in the league. Sam Fuld’s nine triples were also fifth-highest in the PCL.

On the mound, Jay Jackson’s .256 opponent average was the fourth-lowest in the PCL while his 119 strikeouts were good for fifth-best. Jackson received the Iowa Cubs Pitcher of the Year award, posting a 4.63 ERA and 11 wins. Barney was Iowa’s recipient of the Most Valuable Player Award this season. Several Iowa Cubs managed to etch their names in the record books this season. Jason Dubois is second among Iowa’s all-time career leaders with 88 home runs. Micah Hoffpauir owns the RBI record, notching 378 runs batted in over parts of seven season with Iowa. His 517 hits and 121 doubles are also tops on the franchise list. The 2010 season marked Iowa’s 30th year as a AAA affiliate of the Chicago Cubs. Since 1981, Iowa holds a .502 record (2,149-2,124).

Sandberg Named PCL Manager of the Year Ryne Sandberg, in his first season as a skipper at the Triple-A level, has been named the Pacific Coast League’s Manager of the Year for the 2010 campaign, the league announced Friday. Under his guidance, eight players have made their Major League debut with Chicago during the 2010 season. They include Triple-A All-Star Game starting pitcher Thomas Diamond, All-PCL shortstop Darwin Barney and top pitching prospect Andrew Cashner. Iowa has also had at least a share of the division lead

for 47 consecutive days leading into the final series of the year. The Cubs’ Hall of Fame second baseman is in his fourth season managing in the organization, having been at the helm of the Single-A Peoria Chiefs in 2007 and 2008 and the Double-A Tennessee Smokies in 2009. He piloted the Smokies to a second-half division title a season ago, taking the club to the Southern League Championship Series. The PCL postseason awards are given based on the voting of the league’s field managers, general managers, broadcasters and media. The field manager and general manager from each of

the 16 PCL clubs submit one ballot, while the broadcasters and media

from each of the 16 markets submit a second ballot, for a total of 32 ballots. Sandberg received 15 Manager of the Year votes, with Mike Jirschele of Omaha coming in second with five votes. Other managers receiving votes included Chris Maloney of Memphis, Bobby Jones of Oklahoma City, Tony DeFrancesco of Sacramento, Steve Decker of Fresno and former Tacoma manager Daren Brown, currently managing in the big leagues with the Seattle Mariners. Previous award winners include Tommy Lasorda of Spokane in 1970, Mike Hargrove of Colorado Springs in 1989, and Charlie Manuel of Colorado Springs in 1992.

From Pella to Pit Row: Former Dutch in NASCAR

Given the choice, Cam Waugh would still rather spend his Saturdays clad in red and white, eyeing open patches of FieldTurf at Ronand Joyce Schipper Stadium while barreling upfield in an adrenaline-fueled surge with another kickoff return. College football ended for Waugh and teammate Matt VerMeer in 2008 after helping Central secure three Iowa Conference titles in four seasons. But that’s when life for the two former Dutch wide receivers took a dramatic left turn into the high-decibel world of NASCAR. In less than a year, they journeyed from Pella’s tranquil brick streets to the thunder of pit row at the famed Indianapolis Brickyard. The pressure-packed precision required of them on auto racing pit crews brings the kind of rush they never thought they’d experienceanywhere but the Central end zone. “It’s a lot of the same adrenaline,” VerMeer said. “When I left Central, really, I didn’t expect to ever get that feeling again. The only difference is you have seven guys on a team here, instead of 100.” Waugh and VerMeer were hired by Hendrick Motorsports. Waugh landed a spot with the Nationwide series, NASCAR’s second-highest tier of competition, while VerMeer vaulted to the big leagues, working with superstar Jeff Gordon in the elite Sprint Cup series.

“It’s a lot of fun,” said VerMeer, a Montezuma native whose family owns an auto dealership. “Growing up as a Jeff Gordon fan, it’s kind of a dream come true. It’s very interesting.”

Neither came to Pella in 2005 thinking that they could parlay football into a professional athletics career. But then Central strengthand conditioning coach Jake Anderson received a flyer about a tryout in Omaha for positions with a NASCAR pit crew. He smiled and saved it for VerMeer, whose passion for the world of wheels was well known. VerMeer jumped on it.“He was joking, but I was 100 percent serious,” he said. Hendrick Motorsports was looking for skilled athletes for its innovative new developmental pit crew program. The theory was that in ajob where a second’s delay can costs thousands of dollars, sprint times outweigh socket wrench skills. “In the past, they didn’t have true athletes on the pit crews,” VerMeer said. “Just guys who knew about cars.” At the initial April tryout in Omaha, VerMeer and Waugh were

part of a herd of applicants who were tested for strength and agility. “It was sort of like the NFL Combine,” VerMeer said. “They did bench press testing and agility tests. They were looking for athleteswho could come in and learn.” In late June the duo was sent to a final round of

tryouts at the Hendrick Motorsports headquarters in Charlotte, N.C., where much of the testing mirrored his Central workouts. “I was well prepared after being a Central football player,” VerMeer said. But Central taught VerMeer more than bigger, faster, stronger. “The main thing I found working with Coach (Jeff) McMartin and Coach Anderson over the years is they’re just people who want more intheir lives,” VerMeer said. “They’re dedicated and they just treat people right. When I was trying out, I was always staying late andoffering to help people. Just doing the little things and doing them right. Central taught me that’s important and that’s what I try to do.” The little things matter at Hendrick Motorsports, which is among NASCAR’s top racing teams, with drivers like Gordon, Jimmy Johnson, Dale Earnhardt, Jr. and Mark Martin. VerMeer and Waugh were among nine athletes who gained a six-month position on the developmental crew, then survived a final cut before seven were hired. VerMeer then won a tryout for the rear tire carrier position on Gordon’s No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Dupont/Pepsi/National Guard Chevrolet crew. Gordon has rock star status in one of the nation’s most popular sports. Every race he enters has a big-game aura, and every pit stop is like fourth-and-goal. “It’s very intense,” VerMeer said. “Jeff has won four Cupchampionships. There’s pressure with him to win every weekend. A pit stop can make or break you. If he has to pit when he’s in first place and we mess up as a crew, that could put him at 10th or 15th place. Then his chances aren’t as good.”

Achieve Your Fitness Goals, Discover Your Kosama BodyTim Weideman Editor Originally Published: Vol. 12 Issue 7

No matter the body, no matter the goal, the trainers at Kosama believe everyone can achieve their ideal body, or their “Kosama body.” Kosama’s “Complete Body Transformation” is a 10-week program “designed to increase lean muscle mass and trans-form the body from the core out,” according to Kosama’s website, kosama.com. It is designed to work for everyone, from athletes to everyday people wanting to transform their bodies and live healthier lifestyles. “All age groups, all body types, all fitness levels, you name it, and every single one of them gets challenged.” Kosama co-founder Matt Braet said of who has taken advantage of the program. Make no mistake about it, the “Complete Body Trans-formation” program is indeed a challenge, but that’s what delivers the amazing results in just 10 weeks. Those who sign up for the program attend classes six days a week for the duration of the program. Each class is one hour long and focuses on six different workouts: yoga, kettle bells, kickboxing, plyometrics, upper body strength and lower body strength—all serving a different function for shaping each person’s complete Kosama body. Braet said that many people are taking advantage of the workout, from the Waukee High School boys’ basketball team, to those looking to lose excess weight, to people in their upper sixties. On one end of the spectrum, there are people who have been told by their doctor that they need to lose weight immediately and, on the other end, some people in the program have already been working out for many years. In short, Kosama is designed for everybody. “Everyone’s question is how can the 340-pound person do the exact same thing a high school basketball player from Waukee’s doing,” Braet said. “It’s just that you modify ev-erything. You know, everybody can go at their pace and our instructors are taught that based on whatever someone’s fitness goals or current fitness levels are, you adapt to that person.” “So everybody in the class will have the same exercise, be

doing the same workout, but they’re taught how to do it at their pace, to their level,” Braet said. “Eventually as they start getting in shape, getting rid of the stiffness, the soreness, whatever it is, then they can start going a little bit harder, you know, lose a little bit more weight, whatever it may be.” In addition to the workout program, Kosama also offers nutri-tion advice through an online meal planning software. Kosama’s website says, “We do not force you to radically change your eat-ing habits, our online program simply points out ways to make your meals better for you.” Members of Kosama’s program enter their diet into the software and it points out opportunities to find healthy substi-tutes and helps them identify foods in their diets they should try to avoid, such as foods containing too much cholesterol or saturated fat. Another feature Kosama can offer is the motivation it creates in people to achieve their goals because the workouts are held in a class setting. “When you’re feeding off the energy of everybody else in the class with all the instructors, you just get that extra couple (reps) in,” Braet said. “But not only that, most people, say when you go to the gym to work out, yeah you can work out hard, but there’s a lot of drinking fountain breaks, you’re talking to people and you get your hour workout in, but do you do what you would do in an hour workout with us? Absolutely not.” Besides seeing their desired results, people who sign up for a 10-week session also have a chance to win the Kosama Body Challenge. For every session throughout the year, each Kosama location picks one winner who has experienced the best trans-formation. The winners’ before and after pictures are then posted on Kosama.com and put to a vote to decide an overall winner, who receives $5,ooo. Plus, starting Jan. 3, any person who signs up for a session at some point during 2011 and remains a member until the end of the year will be eligible for the Kosama Ultimate Body Challenge. The yearlong challenge will run through mid-December and the overall winner will receive $20,000. The focus and drive Kosama instill in people of all types is a huge factor that gives the program an advantage over many

conventional workout routines and traditional gyms. If you would like to learn more about how you can achieve your Kosama body, visit www.kosama.com. Kosama has locations in Clive, Ankeny, West Des Moines, Downtown Des Moines, Johnston, Omaha, Ames, Altoona/Pleasant Hill, Iowa City, Cedar Falls, Phoenix, Arizona; and locations coming soon to Sioux Fall, Quad Cities, Chicago, St. Paul, Minn. and Omaha.

As the weather turns colder and the snow star ts to fal l , I thought it appropriate to write about how to safely exercise in the cold weather. Moving indoors to exercise and train is an option for some people, but for those athletes who don’t mind the cold weather, or those whose spor ts depend on the snow and cold weather, staying warm and safe is a pr ior ity. There are two basic ways to keep warm: increased heat production and decreasing heat loss. Increased heat production is the least ef fective way to prevent cold i l lness, but is sti l l impor tant. Exercise and shiver ing increase heat production. Eating more frequent meals to help replenish fuel stores can help as well , especial l y for athletes who are doing prolonged exercise in cold weather. Also, remember to stay wel l hydrated. Dehydration can impair blood f low. Decreasing heat loss is the most ef fective way to prevent cold injur ies, and this is mainly accomplished with

“ layer ing” of clothing. Insulation (to prevent heat loss) and permeabil ity (to

al low moisture to escape) are impor tant proper ties of cold weather clothing. Most versati le cold weather clothing is composed of 3 layers. The inner layer closet to the body should be a hybr id polyester fabr ic (e.g. Coolmax, Thermolite, and Thermax) that al lows wicking of moisture away from the body. Avoid cotton clothing as the f irst layer. The middle layer can be another layer of the f irst fabr ic, or a heavier layer such as wool, synthetic blends, f leece, or down. This layer can of ten cause overheating, though, so modify this layer depending on the type of activ ity.

The last layer is the protective shel l , and this should be windproof and water repel lant. Some newer ny lons al low a lot of breathabi l ity, al lowing moisture and sweat from the athlete to pass outward and evaporate. The goal of layer ing is to stay warm without overheating. Other t ips that can help include wearing mittens instead of gloves, wearing an

insulating cap or using a hood when needed, and using ski goggles to prevent eye/corneal freezing. Wearing a scar f, neck gaiter, or balaclava can help prevent neck and face exposure. Scarves can also help to warm the air, and are suggested for those athletes that have a history of asthma (the cold, dry air of ten makes asthma symptoms worse). Whether you are involved in a spor t l ike ski ing or snowmobil ing, or just l ike to be outside for exercise or fun, fol lowing the above t ips can help keep you safe. I f you do have dif f icult ies with exercising in the cold, or sustain a cold injury, see a doctor who is experienced in spor ts medicine to help you.

2010 Year In Review Iowa Sports Connection

Zach Johnson did Iowa proud August 13 at the 92nd PGA Championship in Kohler, Wisconsin. Not only that, but he did it in a way no golfer from Iowa ever had before him by finishing in a tie for third. It was the highest finish at the PGA Championship ever by an Iowan golfer. German Martin Kaymer took home the trophy and, what most non-Iowans will remember about the event, Dustin Johnson got caught up in a little controversy over what he did not realize to be a bunker. But to Iowans, this edition of the PGA Championships will be remembered for Zach Johnson’s spectacular outing. It was his second-best career finish in a major. Earlier this year, Johnson won the Crowne Plaza Invite and, of course, was the 2007 Masters Champion. Johnson hit the ball with great consistency all four days of the event, shooting a 69-70-69 and wrapping up the final day with a 2-under 70, finishing with a total 10-under and in a tie for third place with Rory McIlroy. Now, Johnson will turn his focus on his two tournaments that are left before U.S. captain Corey Pavin selects who will be the remaining four members for the U.S. team at the Ryder

Cup on September 7. Eight spots have already been taken.

The Other Johnson’s Mistake

Dustin Johnson had a one-stroke lead playing the 18th hole when his ball landed in a tiny patch of sand. Little did Johnson know, that small patch of sand was actually one of the many miniature bunkers that mark the course at Whistling Straits. Johnson, thinking the pocket of sand was grass that had been trampled by the crowd, grounded

his club and sealed his fate. The two-stroke penalty along with a missed putt, sent Johnson backwards to a tie for 5th place.
