This past Monday evening has the potential to be one of the more momentous occasions for Iowa Hawkeye athletics in recent memory. Now look, I realize in the era of Caitlin Clark, Cooper DeJean, Spencer Lee, Luka Garza, etc. that statement seems like a pretty bold one to make. But based upon several factors that’ll I’ll detail in this piece; it isn’t quite as far-fetched as it may seem on the surface. I’m talking of course about the announcement from Ben Kueter that he’d be dedicating the next 10 months solely to the sport of wrestling. By now, most of you probably know the Cliffs Notes version...

In the grand scheme of things, a player making his MLB debut isn’t an uncommon occurrence. Every single year, a couple hundred players get the call up to the majors and appear in their first ever MLB game. Just because it’s a common occurrence doesn’t mean it’s not a life changing day for every single one of them. On Tuesday night at Angel Stadium, former Iowa starting pitcher and Big Ten Pitcher of the Year Adam Mazur stepped on to the mound for the San Diego Padres. Fans of the Woodbury High Royals, South Dakota State Jackrabbits and Iowa Hawkeyes, all watched eagerly. Meanwhile, in attendan...

Cue transfer portal season. Just 48 hours after the portal officially opened for business and over a thousand names have already entered. There’s a wide variety of opinions on whether or not having that many players looking for new homes is healthy for the sport or not. One thing is for certain, any team looking to fill a couple of roster spots will have plenty of options. Rick Heller and the Iowa Hawkeyes could be one of the teams looking to make a couple of additions this offseason. A source indicates that the coaching staff is looking to potentially add a pitcher or two, while they are also...

A long three days of wrestling out in Geneva, Ohio proved to be quite a fruitful one for the future of the Iowa Hawkeyes – as 14 current/incoming athletes competed at the Under-20 World Team Trials and Under-23 Nationals events. By lunch time Sunday, a total of eight Iowa entries had earned podium (top eight) finishes, including three of whom secured individual titles and a subsequent berth on Team USA for varying World Championships to be held later this year. That trio – comprised of current Hawkeyes Ben Kueter (U20 Freestyle) and Patrick Kennedy (U23 Freestyle), as well as incoming freshman...

Welcome to the show Adam Mazur. After getting promoted to Triple-A El Paso on May 14th, MLB Insider Robert Murray reports that Mazur has been called up by the San Diego Padres. He is expected to start on Tuesday night against the Los Angeles Angels. When Mazur takes the mound at Angel Stadium, he will become just the fourth former Hawkeye to pitch in an MLB game since 2000, joining Wes Obermueller (2002), Matt Dermody (2016) and Nick Allgeyer (2021). Adam Mazur started his college career at South Dakota State and spent two years with the Jackrabbits. He made 16 starts as the ace of the SDSU st...

Making sense of Iowa’s high school and transfer portal recruiting means always looking ahead at the number of roster spots potentially available in any given year. The new age of college sports with the transfer portal means rosters are much more fluid than they used to be. Add in MLB Draft decisions and college baseball coaches have their hands full trying to figure out what their roster will look like during the offseason. Here, we have compiled all of players for the Iowa Baseball team by position and will be keeping a running total for the Hawkeyes to see where they stack up towards the 40...

Although the season is over for the Iowa Baseball team, the major league season is in full swing, which means there are plenty of former Hawkeyes still playing ball. Since Rick Heller took over as head coach in 2013, Iowa has seen 30 former players sign professional contracts, including 27 players going in the MLB Draft. As it currently stands, four former Hawkeyes are just one call away from making their MLB debut. Over the last three years, Nick Allgeyer, Mason McCoy and Tyler Cropley have appeared in an MLB game. Triple-ARHP Adam Mazur – El Paso Chihuahuas (San Diego Padres) Selected in the...

Whoooo boy. If any of you out there were under the impression that wrestling season was going on hiatus as the calendar turns to June – well, you were sorely mistaken. But fret not, Hawkeye fans! This isn’t some last-minute ‘summer book club’ being thrust upon you by next year’s English teacher. Rather, the ‘assignment’ both you and I have been tasked with is to watch a whole bunch of high-quality freestyle action this weekend as both the Under-20 World Team Trials and Under-23 Nationals take place in Geneva, Ohio. So, if anything, we should be thanking our lucky stars for the coming days ahea...

Just like that, all will be quiet at Duane Banks Field next week. The Iowa Baseball team entered the season ranked in the top 25 by multiple media outlets and had aspirations of not only winning the Big Ten, but potentially hosting an NCAA Tournament Regional. The 54 game season raced by and last Thursday, the Hawkeyes watched their season come to a close with a loss to Illinois at the Big Ten Tournament. A mix of inconsistency on the mound, injuries and bad luck led the demise of the Hawkeyes season. Instead of discussing the upcoming NCAA Tournament, Iowa is looking to turn the page to next ...

After a season that fell well short of expectations on the pitching mound, the Iowa Baseball coaching staff will have a big change going into the 2025 season. D1Baseball’s Kendall Rogers reports that pitching coach Sean McGrath will leave the program after just two seasons on the staff. Prior to arriving at Iowa, McGrath made coaching stops at Iona College, UMass Lowell and Elon, while he also spent three seasons as a pitching coach in the Seattle Mariners organization. At the time of his hiring, Rick Heller said that McGrath was one of the top names on his list after former pitching coach Rob...
