Iowa came out and took care of business from the start which is good to see. Tyler Cropley, Justin Jenkins, and Kyle Crowl all delivered offensively. It's big when you get the 2-out hits.
Cole McDonald notched a great start and got the W. He goes seven innings and both runs were unearned. Kyle Shimp pitched in relief.
The only concern is the errors committed that led to runs. Really need to clean it up as we saw against Ball State how an error can snowball into a huge inning.
I will take 5-1 on the year and 2-1 weekends all the time. Iowa opens up at home against Cornell College at 4pm on Tuesday. If you can get there then go, games at Duane Banks are always a good time. I will be interested in seeing who we start for midweek games. I assume we will Johnny Wholestaff the game.
Iowa travels to Birmingham,AL next weekend for the first true road series @ UAB.
