Iowa

Iowa was a cool trip. We went to Iowa to win a game. We accomplished a lot more. We flew to Iowa and it was freezing. It was so cold. The place was dry and bareen. Its the worst place I have ever visited. Just a lot of fields and a few people and its just lame. I remember the morning of the game, we were at the hotel and some dudes were like, "What do you want to do tonight? Eh...there is a hawkeye game. That sounds cool." Thats how lame it is. Terrible.
The Hotel was sweet...they actually had a hot tub and a pool. Koodos to them. But WAYYYY too many pillows...I dont even use a pillow. BUt who on earth would use 4.5 pillows? Thats a Marriot for you. And the little light on the side of the bed...now thats clever. I even used it...not just to use it but bc Willy is lazy. How that makes sence? I have no idea...

Everyone was rannting on how bad the stadium was, but it was sweet. It was a bowl shaped stadium, built into the ground like Michigan Stadium. From the outside, it just looked like a one storied structure, but behind the eight window doors was a clorious arena, with screens all the way around including some HD monitors. Banners filled the place, dominated by their Wrestling program. I was talking with one of the managers there (that get full scholerships for their work), and he told me that wrestling is just so popular. THe basketball arena probobly had 4-6000 people at the game that night, barely anyone there. The stadium holds 15,000. He says on wrestling meets they would have it at the basketball arena and have 16,000 people with stadning room only on the perimiter of the arena. Crazy.

And you could tell. There team was terrible. But of course our Wolverines had problems holding on and the Hawkeyes cmae back. In the last second DeShawn Sims took a pace at the top and drained a 3pointer to tie the game. The Hawkeyes brought it to the other side of the floor in the last seconds to take the game but came up emtie handed. Over time. And Manny Harris shined, hitting three pointers and slashing his way through, and with the help of Peedi, sealed the game as a Victory for the Wolverines.
