Look how close the ball is to the goal line to start this play. Mark Gronowski is able to push forward and give the #Hawkeyes a 24-16 lead at the half. Iowa has def. Nebraska 9 of the past 10 tries. Game is on KCCI News

I want to point out how much of a class act Joshua Jefferson has been the past week. He gets to play in NCAA Tourney, has it ripped away, and still answers every question openly and honestly, over and over while being his same polite self. Hard not to root for him #Cyclones

Tamin Lipsey tells me he's worked out for the following teams: Boston Chicago Memphis Milwaukee Golden State ------ Tells me he's still scheduled with: LA Lakers Indiana OKC SAC LAC Detroit #Cyclones legend might not be on mock drafts but NBA teams are clearly interested.

Hey CBS Sports if you need something for the montage - UNI Basketball's Max Weisbrod has you covered! So much fun with these guys after UNI punched its ticket to #MarchMadness. Much more from STL tonight on KCCI News

My man Dallas Clark has this HR Derby thing figured out 😂 #Hawkeyes Great time at Cooper DeJean Charity Softball Game

The #Cyclones have taken over KC! #marchmadness KCCI News

WHAT A MESSAGE from UNI T&F/XC star Hunter Manock. The North Polk Activities state champ was not recruited by anyone after HS. Went to UNI as a regular student, e-mailed the coaches for a tryout, and is now the MVC Indoor Champ. Won Jim Duncan Relays Friday.

Waukee Northwest falls 31-15. Breakthrough season. It was fun to cover them. No doubt they will be back. It’s gone be Liberty and Dowling Friday at 7 for the 5A Championship. Live coverage of a packed day tonight at 10 on KCCI News

This is what it’s all about. Toryn Severson leads Madrid Tiger Pride to first state title ever and then gets a hug he’ll remember forever from his dad, assistant coach Jeremy. What a moment.KCCI News Shannon Ehrhardt

I hate this. #Hawkeyes senior Gabbie Marshall has gotten angry messages directed at her about the screen call last night so she has decided to delete social media. "That one play consumed everything." Video by Shannon Ehrhardt KCCI News

This is what kind or leader Rocco Becht is. Instead of running to the lockerroom after the 45-19 loss, he stood waiting in the tunnel and until he could say something to every single teammate. #Cyclones KCCI News #Big12Championship

"The purity is gone." Lifelong coach Mark Farley (41 plaers to NFL) is retiring at age 61 because of how he feels the game has changed. He talked about in-home visits to guys like Karter Schult, and watching them develop over the years. Doesn't want to deal w NIL, transfers, etc

Tamin Lipsey walks off in tears. Crushing loss to end the season. #Cyclones fall to Tennessee 76-62. Joshua Jefferson’s absence was beyond huge. A season bursting with Final Four potential ends in the Sweet 16. ISU finishes 29-8. Interviews coming. KCCI News

This is wild to watch. Here’s what the new Big 12 court looks like from up top during intros and timeouts. During game play there’s no animation, but we did see some stats displayed during free throws on the end of the court where the FTs are not being shot. #Cyclones

I’ve NEVER seen a buzzer beater like this. Why? Madrid Tiger Pride Samantha Springer hits a 3/4 court 3 to beat Orient-Macksburg 41-38 in the playoffs. That’s the last game ever for O/M which is closing due to low #s after being open since 1921. A century of sports ends in heartbreak.

NUTS! DCGACTIVITIES trailed Norwalk by 2 in the final minute. Ava Smid scored off the inbounds play, stole the Norwalk inbounds and scored, then stole the Norwalk inbounds AGAIN and scored AGAIN. 6 points in 12 seconds. DCG goes on to win 47-42. Vid by DCG

This is raw emotion from #Cyclones junior Addy Brown. She cares so much. After missing 11 games due to injury, she returned Wednesday and helped ISU rout Arizona St. 90-64. Addy played 20 minutes and had 6 points, 7 reb, 6 assists and a block. Video courtesy ISU Athletics.

You never now who you are gonna run into at a #Cyclones game :) ISU legend Georges Niang is in the house! He's here in Chicago to support ISU and has total faith in his guys. KCCI News

4-star ATH Jayden McGregory from Valley does the hat dance and announces he's headed to Louisville Football! Had 18 offers from major schools such as Iowa State, Georgia, Michigan. Also a star basketball player for the state championship Tigers. He'll play this Fall then enroll early

WATCH: #Eagles star rookie Cooper DeJean was RIDICULOUS in HS. State Championship game his senior yr, OABCIG was down 8 w 1:30 left. He scored TD, 2-pter, Van Meter then fumbled, then DeJean won it with an ALL-TIME championship-winning run. #Hawkeyes #SBLIX

They’re here! Here’s exclusive video of the #Cyclones hotel arrival Dublin. Matt Campbell’s squad flew direct from DSM. 7.5 hr flight, then six busses to hotel, where staff had fight song playing and highlights going. The shades were recommended by sleep specialist. Iowa State Football

"Iowa Staters are gonna get their money's worth Thursday night at the Guinness Ireland Factory...." Jamie Pollard Jamie Pollard tells me over 10,000 #Cyclones have tickets to flood Ireland in 2 weeks. More tonight at 10 on KCCI News. Stacey Horst, Dylan Coon and I will be there!

How big of a deal is Caitlin Clark? Her OPPONENTS are asking for selfies and autographs. #CaitlinClark was very gracious in the middle of this craziness. What a scene! #Fever #Hawkeyes KCCI News @JeffDubrofKCCI Shannon Ehrhardt

Now if only Caitlin Clark could have a little fun up there 🤣 #Hawkeyes season celebration and 22 is crushing it

Harrison Barnes joined me today ahead of the FINALS - HAD to ask him about the legendary Ames High Athletics teams. His jr/sr year went 53-0 and ran teams off the court. Two top-11 NBA draft picks: HB + Doug McDermott...in HIGH SCHOOL. I saw them in person - sheer domination

This is wild. The old gym at Orient-Macksburg had brick walls right around the out of bounds lines. Fans watched from the windows above. Was in use for decades until 1965. Don’t dive for balls, kids.

Wanted to post this powerful raw clip from our interview with #cyclones sr Joshua Jefferson. Sprained ankle kept him out of the season-ending SW16 loss to Tenn. Really tough conversation, but once again he's willing to talk and share his passion for the team/ISU KCCI News

How do you not love Curtis Jones? "My motivation is...losing sucks. Winning is fun." ISU is ranked 3rd for the third-straight week. #Cyclones Vid by ISU Athletics

Betcha didn't know THIS happened.... Caitlin Clark and Monika Czinano explain "Operation Mon-bag" to the #Hawkeyes masses. So much drama!
