Brightness Ahead for the IA Men?

I like the idea of CJ Frederick joining the Iowa Hawkeyes men's basketball team in the fall. I hope he has a fantastic career as an Iowa Hawkeye! I read about him in an article - link below - and, as always, I think Rick Brown writes good hooks:

IOWA CITY, Iowa -- CJ Fredrick's high school basketball career came to a storybook ending on March 18, winning a Kentucky state championship at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky.

As the celebration moved into high gear, Fredrick looked into the crowd and saw his dad, Chuck. He wasn't expecting to see the guy standing next to him.

It was University of Iowa head men's basketball coach Fran McCaffery, who had just watched Fredrick wrap up most valuable player honors with a 32-point performance as his Covington Catholic team beat No. 1 Scott County, 73-55, in the title game

See what I mean? That said, I'm not entirely sure why the article begins with "Iowa City, Iowa" as the 'location' of the article when it's really about what took place in "Lexington, KY." That said, read the entire article:
