MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota -- The University of Iowa softball team dropped a 9-0 decision to No. 12 Minnesota on Sunday afternoon. The loss secured the three-game series sweep for the Gophers (41-8; 15-3). Iowa falls to 16-37 on the season and 7-13 in conference action.
"If you don't learn from this experience, it's a waste of an opportunity to be better," said head coach Marla Looper. "The girls are giving their best effort, but we have to continue to make adjustments."
After a scoreless first inning, the Gophers found the scoreboard in the bottom of the second.
