We are back!
And that sure was quick. It was mentioned on the broadcast that Iowa won’t go more than four days without playing a game for the bulk of the early schedule and guess what? It checks out - 10 games in 31 days.
Anyways, the Iowa Hawkeyes (1-0) second game of the bunch is against a UMKC Kangaroos (0-1) group who lost to the Minnesota Golden Gophers, 71-56. They played them close before a 17-2 run with about 6 minutes left put it away for a team up north.
The Roos are now a part of the Summit League - their second year - and are led by Billy Donlon, who’s in his third year in Kansas City.
