Moving Forward

Tonight's men's basketball game at Carver-Hawkeye Arena was about the past, the present, and the future. First, the past was represented by a halftime presentation about Chris Street, who was killed 20 years ago tonight. The present was the men's team beating the Wisconsin Badger team that defeated Indiana in Indiana this past week. They were 4-0 in the Big Ten. Iowa had a 20 point lead at one point and ended up winning by 3. The future was the fact that the men's team did not lose the game. The program is on the right track and I was happy for the current team that they were able to earn the victory. Wisconsin was not going to roll over for them and mustered a furious comeback effort. In the end, though, it was not enough.
