In what was thought to be a special baseball season for Rick Heller’s squad, the Iowa 9 has hit a few bumps in the road. At this point, the Hawkeyes sit at 7-9 overall with a weekend series upcoming against Western Illinois in Iowa City. Iowa is looking to replace a few key pieces from last year’s pitching staff. Typically Hellerball starts with quality pitching. Iowa also is known for playing “clean” baseball (with few fielding errors). The Hawkeyes have been getting quality innings from starters Brody Brecht and Cade Obermueller.
