IOWA CITY, Iowa -- Bobby McFerrin didn’t write his chart-topping song with the University of Iowa women’s basketball team in mind, but a paraphrased lyric from Don’t Worry, Be Happy could do wonders for the Hawkeyes.
“In every game you have some trouble, when you worry you make it double. Don’t worry, be scrappy.” A worry-free Iowa team (13-5 overall, 3-3 Big Ten) hosts Penn State (6-11, 1-5) on Wednesday on Mediacom Court inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena with a 7 p.m. (CT) tip.
The Hawkeyes average 18.2 turnovers through the first six league games while post players Chase Coley and Megan Gustafson have combined to shoot nearly 52 percent from the field.
