The team of Betsy Flood, Jackie Laesch, Megan Ranegar, and McKenzie Melander won the event in 19:16.73 minutes, edging confer- ence rival Minnesota by 0.98 sec- onds. The Hawkeyes and Gophers outran the field by 17 seconds. What made this victory sweeter for the Hawkeyes was that Minnesota-native Melander ran the winning anchor leg — a mile time of 4:40.5 minutes — to foil her home team of a Drake Relays victory. Melander was especially happy to get the victory — this was many of the relay team members’ last shot at winning at the Drake Relays. “Three of us are seniors, so we’ve waited a long time for this,” she said in a release. It was also a homecoming victo- ry for Flood, who graduated from West Des Moines Dowling. This is Flood’s eighth year at the Drake Relays — she has run more meets on the Jim Duncan Track than any other surface in the country, including Iowa’s home Cretzmeyer Track. Flood seemed excited about her team’s victory on Thursday night. “I see they’ve upgraded the flags,” she said of the team’s awards in a release. “Nice. We can hang these forever.” — by Cody Goodwin

Rowers head to Notre Dame The Iowa rowing team will get back in action when it takes on Louisville, Notre Dame, Rutgers, Syracuse, and West Virginia at the Notre Dame Invitational in Indianapolis on Saturday. The Hawkeyes are fresh off of a successful outing in which they racked up four victories at Alabama on April 22. Iowa received strong performances across the board as the Varsity 8, second Varsity 8, Varsity 4, and Novice 8 boats all raced to victo- ry over the Crimson Tide. The most impressive outing of the meet came courtesy of the Novice 8 crew, which finished almost 22 seconds ahead of Alabama with a time of 7:08.7 minutes. The quickest time of the day was run by the Varsity 8 crew, which scored a time of 6:38.0 minutes, the fastest in five years by a Hawkeye Varsity 8. Following Saturday’s event, the Hawkeyes will prepare for the Big GET THE AREA’S BEST SPECIALS DAILY Ten championships in Indianapolis on May 13. — by Tom Clos SCAN THE CODE

Liz Watkins stayed around Pearl Field well after Thursday night’s dou- ble-header was over. She had little choice — the catcher was swarmed by young softball players from the Heartland Havoc team begging for her auto- graph on balls, shirts, and even a purse.
