It has not been the season the Iowa baseball team was hoping for. Ranked as high as 18th early in the season the Hawkeyes are 18-15 overall and 6-6 in the Big Ten heading into Wednesday’s nonconference game against Bradley. Iowa dropped two of three games at Ohio State last weekend.
That’s Iowa coach Rick Heller. With a month remaining in the regular season The Hawkeyes are hoping to get things turned around.
Injuries have limited two of Iowa’s top three hitters the past couple of weeks. Sam Peterson is battling a lower leg injury and Andy Nelson has been hampered by a hamstring injury.
The Hawkeyes host Rutgers beginning Friday in a three game Big Ten series.
