IOWA CITY — The University of Iowa women’s basketball team is ranked No. 2 in the Associated Press Top 25 released on Monday. Iowa has spent 16 total weeks at No. 2 in program history.

The Hawkeyes have been ranked in the Top 5 since the first poll came out Oct. 17. Iowa currently owns the longest active streak in the AP Top 5 at 15 consecutive weeks.

Iowa has 327 appearances in the AP Poll and the Hawkeyes rank 23rd for all-time appearances.

The Hawkeyes are coming off a pair of road wins at Northwestern and Maryland. Iowa snapped its seven-game losing streak at Maryland on Saturday with a 93-85 victory against the Terps.

Iowa last started 21-2 in the 1995-96 season and is 7-1 against AP Top 25 and teams receiving votes this season.

 

 

 

 

DES MOINES — Drake men’s basketball coach Darian DeVries says his team is focused on what is ahead and not what could have been. The Bulldog’s Missouri Valley regular season title hopes took a hit on Saturday with a loss at league leader Indiana State.

The Bulldogs host Southern Illinois on Wednesday night.

Drake begins the week with a 9-3 record in the Missouri Valley Conference and 18-5 overall.

 

 

 

 

AMES — Iowa State coach Matt Campbell will be at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Sunday when former Cyclone quarterback Brock Purdy leads the San Francisco 49ers against the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 58. Purdy became the ISU starter as a freshman and led the Cyclones to four bowl games, a trip to the Big 12 Championship game and a Fiesta Bowl victory. Campbell is not sure he will get a chance to see the former Cyclone.

Campbell says several of Purdy’s former ISU teammates will be at the game.

Campbell is not surprised by the success Purdy has enjoyed in the NFL.

Campbell says two weeks into fall camp in Purdy’s freshman year, he knew he had someone special.

Campbell says Purdy has succeeded at all levels of football because he wins.

Kickoff for the Super Bowl is scheduled for about 5:30 Sunday evening.
