Sorry I haven't updated in a while. With the school year winding down, suddenly more tests and prjects are thrown into the picture. Funny how that happens.
Anyway, here's a link to my latest gymnastics article, which can be found in Thursday's Daily. It's a preview of the NCAA Central Region championship in Tuscaloosa, Ala. and details a unique way the Cyclones have motivated themselves in practice over the past couple weeks.
Now or never
Unfortunately, I won't be traveling to the meet this weekend, so I'm unable to provide live coverage. However, live stats should be available on cyclones.com.
In non-gymnastics news, members of the Iowa State Boxing Club are competing at the NCBA Nationals in Reno, Nev. this weekend. The boxing team is comprised of a wonderful bunch of student-athletes and coach Terry Dowd is one of my absolute favorite people on campus. The team, which receives little university funding, regularly hold their own against military schools that require boxing as part of their curriculum, so for them to achieve this much success is pretty remarkable. Here's a couple of articles by Daily reporter Paul Flies detailing the good-and-bad the team encountered in qualifying for Nationals.Boxers roll with the punches to Nationals and Heavyweight struck with injury for second time
The Gene Chizik-lead ISU football team will also be in action for the first time in the annual spring football game this Saturday at 1 p.m. at Jack Trice Stadium.
Good luck to all the Cyclones this weekend. I'll do my best to update again soon.
Thanks,
Cody
