I am so blessed and beyond excited to announce my commitment to the University of lowa to continue my track & field and academic career! GO HAWKS!! @LThrows@Ladygalestrack@IowaXC_TF@RayCoachThrows
Say what?!? Another record change for girls hammer! The record set by alum @_peytonwilson, now Iowa Hawkeye, has been updated! She was a 3x placer in the Ohio Hammer meet (2x runner-up, 1x8th place) and was an All-American! She set the record each of her 3 years in the event!
We had 7️⃣ throwers represent Iowa at the USATF Championships this weekend! 🇺🇸
Congratulations to current Hawkeyes Austin Busch, Mike Stein, Wisdom Williams and Walker Whalen!
