Iowa Baseball Sweeps Sparty, Grabs B1G Awards
Trenton Wallace is YOUR B1G Pitcher of the Year!The Hawkeyes went into McClane Baseball Stadium at Kobs Field and swept Michigan State right off the map. The Hawks won 7-1, 7-4, and 11-3. Iowa’s Friday night ace, Trenton Wallace, led the way going 7 innings and striking out 9 batters. Wallace ended the year with a 7-1 record with a 2.34 ERA. The Hawkeyes won nine straight series openers; Wallace starting the weekends off was a nice recipe for Coach Rick Heller’s crew. Here is one of three doubles on the day (game 2) by Iowa slugger Peyton Williams. Williams was hurt for a portion of this season. A healthy Williams is going to be the big bopper in Iowa’s lineup next season.
