NIANG'S NIKE EXPERIENCE. Cyclones.TV catches up with Georges Niang as he prepares for the Nike Big Man Skills Academy.

NCAA LOVE FOR HALLIE. Hallie Christofferson is one of 71 female basketball players nominated for the NCAA's woman of the year.

WORKING ON MORE PT. Sherron Dorsey-Walker is a great shooter, but he's working on the other things to earn more playing time.

That's all for today folks.  CanAzn is indisposed and I'm heading out of town, so today's dump is of the splash and go variety.  If you want some entertainment for the day look for Norm's first of three parts about Iowa breweries at 10 AM!
