The Iowa gymnastics team took part in the second session of the Big Ten Championships, scoring 196.125 as a team, good for 8th overall. The meet was won by Michigan, who scored 198.000.
Jerquavia Henderson was the standout performer for the Hawkeyes, taking home a share of the individual title on Floor with an electrifying 9.950 routine. The title was Henderson's second of her career on Floor. Adeline Kenlin had a great night as well, tying for 2nd on the beam with a 9.950 of her own, bested only by a perfect 10 from one of Michigan's gymnasts. Both Kenlin and Henderson were named to the All-Championship team.
Elsewhere, Track and Field started their outdoor season, posting four top-10 scores and earning a smattering of event titles. Kat Moody won the women's discus title with a 56.47m throw (4th in Iowa history), the Men's 4x100 of Kalen Walker, Damoy Allen, Gratt Reed, and Austin Kressley posted the 5th-best time in school history (39.28), and Elizabeth Korsek and Mike Stein each set top-ten marks in Javelin. Korsek's 46.07m mark is the 8th-best in school history and Stein's 65.01m mark is 4th all-time at Iowa. Reed also capped off his strong weekend with a win in the 110m hurdles (13.70).
Iowa Baseball used a huge week at the plate from Sam Petersen and strong pitching from Jared Simpson and Ty Lagenberg to go 4-0 on the week, Iowa Softball split their four games with wins over Marist and USF, and losses to Lehigh and #9 Texas, and Hawkeye Tennis fell to #3 Michigan before bouncing back to beat Michigan St.
