Iowa basketball: Ryan Kriener to play overseas this summer

Most of you have probably never heard of the USA East Coast basketball team, and that is completely understandable. Despite its limited exposure, multiple Iowa basketball players have participated on this summer travel team in the past including Jarrod Uthoff and Nicholas Baer.

This year, it’s senior forward Ryan Kriener’s turn to join this squad as they venture overseas to play friendly competitions against European basketball squads.

Heading out in under a week, the Spirit Lake, Iowa native will play three games overseas while also getting an opportunity to see and explore Europe and assist in local clinics for youth basketball players.
