Swimmers ready for Big Ten By JAKE MOSBACH [email protected]

Tonight, the Hawkeye women’s swimming and diving team will begin the highly competitive Big Ten sched- ule, hosting Michigan State in the Cam- pus Recreation & Wellness Center. The Hawkeyes will also take on Northern Iowa. The action kicks off at 7 p.m. today and will continue at 4 p.m. on Friday. The Hawks come in to the event after beating Illinois-Chicago on Sept. 26 by a score of 146-72. Iowa head coach Marc Long, now in his 12th year leading the Hawkeyes, said that with the beginning of Big Ten competition comes some of the most dif- ficult meets in college swimming. “When we start going in to the Big Iowa defensive end Drew Ott tackles Iowa State quarterback Sam Richardson in Kinnick Stadium on Sept. 13, 2014. Ott will miss the rest of the Hawkeye season with a knee injury.
