End Of The Season Information

Wednesday, May 7, 2008 Iowa finished the season with a 7-5 record, including a 4-1 record in Division I-AA play, tying Kansas State and Mississippi for the division title, but due to probation status (due to missing a game last season), they were unable to go to playoffs. The Hawkeyes voted for the annual team awards and captains for next year's team. The team captains will be: Craig Millspaugh Adam Stillman Jon Ackerman Alex De La Pena The team awards for this past season (voted on by the team): Team MVP: Matt Hanson Offensive MVP: Alex De La Pena Defensive MVP: Ben Diedrich Most Improved: Matt Casaletto & Cameron Frank The conference announced this year's All-GRLC teams this past weekend at the GRLC Tournament (Lindenwood beat Illinois by 1 for the Division I Championship, Harding won the Division II Championship). The following Hawkeyes were named to the GRLC Division I-AA Teams: All-GRLC Division I-AA 1st Team: Adam Stillman (Attack), Will Evans (Attack), Casey Ervin (Midfield), Max Polan (Midfield), Ben Diedrich (Defense) All-GRLC Division I-AA 2nd Team: Alex De La Pena (Attack), Craig Milspaugh (Midfield), Jon Ackerman (Defense) All-GRLC Division I-AA Honorable Mention: Lee Lingenfelter (Defense), Matt Hanson (Goalie) Congrats to those Hawkeyes. That is it for now, but be on the lookout soon for a new site design plus some news regarding summer league in Chicago.

Iowa Finish Conference Schedule With 4-1 Record

Monday, April 14, 2008 The Hawkeyes ended their conference schedule with a 4-1 record after defeating Nebraska, 9-6, on Friday and Memphis, 17-13, on Sunday. With the wins, Iowa finished the GRLC I-AA schedule with a 4-1 record and a share of the Division I-AA title. Kansas State also finished the season with a 4-1 record, while Ole Miss is 2-1 with two conference games upcoming. If Ole Miss loses one of those games, Iowa should get the #6 seed in the GRLC Conference Tournament. If Ole Miss wins out and also finishes 4-1, there will be a three-way tie for the two playoff spots granted to Division I-AA. Since each team went 1-1 against the other two teams, it would go to the top two teams based on goal differential in the required conference games. So the Hawkeyes will be scoreboard watching next weekend. As for now, the Hawkeyes will wait and see their playoff fate. Also, the schedule and stats pages have been updated.
