The Iowa Hawkeyes pulled off a nail-biter 4-3 win over Rutgers in the Big Ten Tournament, punching their ticket to the semifinals against UCLA.
Iowa came out swinging, dropping three runs in the first inning like they had a dinner reservation. Gable Mitchell and Miles Risley turned into a dynamic duo with three hits apiece, while Cade Obermueller turned in a lights-out, seven-inning, 10-strikeout performance that had Heller debating whether to send him out for inning eight or wrap him in bubble wrap.
