Iowa Hawkeyes Baseball: Another series win for Hawks

Heller happy to win another seriesRick Heller’s Iowa baseball team improved to 26-14 (10-6 B1G) this past weekend winning the series when they traveled to Nebraska. The Hawks won the first game 1-0, took a 12-1 drubbing, and then took the series beating the Cornhuskers 5-3 in ten innings. The Hawkeyes sit alone in 4th place in the Big Ten Conference behind Rutgers, Maryland, and Illinois. Iowa has three weekend series left this year. The Hawks host Purdue (6-7 in B1G), travel to Michigan State (6-9 in B1G), and end the regular season with Indiana (6-9 in B1G) at home. That schedule looks good on paper as far as making the postseason is concerned, but the games are played between the lines. Also, the Hawkeyes looked to be in good shape last year, only to stumble late in the season. Iowa’s RPI is 62 right now. The Hawkeyes actually dropped two spots winning two out of three games at Nebraska.
