Moeaki on award watch list Hawkeye tight end Tony Moeaki was named to the 2007 John Mackey Award watch list Tuesday, an honor given annually to the top tight end in collegiate football. The names of the select group of athletes were released by the Nassau County Sports Commission; the winner will be announced in mid- December following the regular season. While Moeaki has Moeaki had a meas- ured role tight end playing behind former All-Big Ten tight end Scott Chandler, the 6-4, 255-pound junior has racked up 19 career catches for 252 yards and three touch- downs in two seasons. The last Hawkeye to win the Mackey Award is current Indianapolis Colt tight end Dallas Clark, who earned the honor following his perform- ance in Iowa’s 2002 regular season. Clark has since become a key member of the Colts’ high-powered offense, and he helped the NFL fran- chise capture a Super Bowl victory in February. — by Charlie Kautz
