Good morning, Iowa City.
🏈 Sports
Today, Oklahoma coach Jennie Baranczyk (a former Iowa player) faces Iowa coach Jan Jensen in a Sweet 16 game as her team hosts the Hawkeyes.
Baranczyk said she expects strong emotions (honoring her late teammate Jamie Cavey-Lang with pins marked 52) as her squad vies for a chance to advance.
Michael Howland, a Norwalk native aged 49, completed his challenge by running a marathon and singing the national anthem in all 50 states—an achievement shared by only one other runner.
He began his journey in 2009 and said his final race in South Carolina stirred strong emotions.
