Iowa Seeks Loop Title In Four-Game Push
Iowa aims for its first outright Big Ten baseball title in 43 years as coach Duane Banks backs a four-win weekend plan. The Hawkeyes swept Minnesota to move to 9-3 in conference, trailing Northwestern 8-2, with Wisconsin and Northwestern remaining on the schedule. Iowa showcases strong team hitting and four home runs in the doubleheader sweep, led by Jim Sundberg and Tom Hurn. The season finale stretch could earn a District 4 bid for the College World Series, though Banks cautions about concentrating on the league race. The team now stands 17-12 and hosts Northern Illinois next.
