Coach Lisa Bluder

Lisa Bluder (pronounced BLUE-dir) is in her fifth season as head coach at the Univer-sity of Iowa and her 20th season as a college head coach. Bluder, 42, has a career record of 451-200 (.693), including a 95-58 (.621) record at Iowa, a 187-106 (.638) record in 10 seasons (1990-2000) at Drake and a six-year mark (1984-90) of 169-36 (.824) at St. Ambrose. Bluder is Iowa’s second all-time winningest coach and trails only C. Vivian Stringer. She has guided the Hawkeyes to

four post-season tournaments (3 NCAA, 1 WNIT) and three upper division finishes in the Big Ten Conference.

In her first season with the Hawkeyes, Bluder transformed a strug-gling program into a 21-game winner. Iowa finished second in the Big Ten, won the conference tournament and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Bluder became Iowa’s third coach to be named Big Ten Coach of the Year. She was also honored as the College Coach of the Year by the Women’s Basketball News Service and was named the WBCA District 6 Coach of the Year. Iowa’s 2001-02 squad finished fourth in the Big Ten and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament for the second consecutive year. In 2003, Bluder guided the Hawkeyes to its first-ever WNIT appearance. Iowa, which had nine underclassmen on its roster, advanced to the quarterfinals before falling to Creighton.

In her 10 years at Drake, Bluder brought great success and tradi-tion to the Bulldog program and established herself as one of the top coaches in the country. She led Drake to five 20-plus win seasons in the last six years, including five post-season appearances. She guided the Bulldogs to eight Missouri Valley Conference Tourna-ment appearances, reaching the semifinals six times and winning the tournament four times. Bluder was also named the Conference Coach of the Year three times as Drake.

Bluder began her coaching career at St. Ambrose, where she coached six successful seasons building the Bees into a NAIA power-house. During her tenure at St. Ambrose, Bluder guided the Bees to four straight national tournaments, including two consecutive Final Four appearances. The 1990 St. Ambrose team was ranked No. 1 and Bluder was named the NAIA Converse Coach of the Year.

A graduate of Linn-Mar High School in Marion, IA, Bluder was a three-year starter at Northern Iowa. She graduated from UNI in 1983 with a bachelor’s degree in marketing.

Bluder and her husband David have two daughters, Hannah (7) and Emma (4) and one son, David (2).

Bluder is 4-1 in Sportsview.tv WNIT games. Bluder has never faced Arkansas State or Coach Brian Boyer.

IOWA CAPTAINS

Iowa captains for the season include senior Jamie Cavey

and juniors Tiffany Reedy and Crystal Smith.

IOWA VS. THE WNIT FIELD

Iowa holds a 6-3 all-time record against the seven remaining teams in the Sportsview.tv WNIT. The Hawkeyes have never faced Texas A&M, Arkansas State or Xavier.

The Hawkeyes are 2-3 vs. SMS, 2-0 vs. West Virginia and 1-0 vs. Ken-tucky and Wake Forest.

HAWKEYES IN THE NATIONAL RANKINGS

As of games played through March 14, Iowa ranks sixth nationally in least fouls per game (13.6), 12th in field goal percentage (.466), 40th in assists (15.8), 44th in scoring offense (69.7) and 50th in rebounding margin (+4.5). Individually, Jamie Cavey ranks 19th in field goal percentage (.559).

LAST TIME OUT

The Iowa women’s basketball team led start-to-finish upending Nebraska 71-67 in the Sportsview.tv WNIT Second Round Monday night in the Bob Devaney Sports Center.

Iowa jumped out to a quick 9-0 advantage, making 10 of its first 13 field goal attempts. The Hawkeyes built their largest lead up to 13 (23-10) with 11:21 left in the first half before the Cornhuskers went on a 15-4 run to trim Iowa’s advantage to three (25-22) with 8:18 remaining in the stanza. The Hawkeyes maintained their composure and took a six-point lead into halftime (40-34).

The Hawkeyes posted half season highs in field goal percentage (60.7, 17-28) and fewest turnovers (4) in the first frame. Iowa also scored its 40 first half points without its leading scorer entering the game – Jamie Cavey. The native of Mechanicsviile, Iowa, played only four minutes in the first half due to foul trouble. In fact, the senior was in foul trouble all game and finished the game scoring a season-low four points on only 1-2 shooting from the field and 2-3 from the charity stripe in a season-low 17 minutes of action.

Replacing Cavey was Stacy Schlapkohl. The native of Durant, Iowa, stepped up in a huge way and scored eight first half points on 4-6 shooting from the field during Cavey’s absence. For the game Schlapkohl netted 12 points on 6-8 shooting in a season-high 23 minutes of action. The 12 points were her second-highest output of the season (Northern Iowa, 18). Midway through the second half, Nebraska went on a 7-0 run to tie the game 49-49. The Hawkeyes answered with their own run of 8-0, spearheaded by Crystal Smith. The junior scored six of the eight points and finished the contest scoring a team-high 21 points (8-14 FG, 4-6 FT). She also finished with four assists and three steals.

Smith helped slam the door shut on the pesky Cornhuskers as Nebraska had an opportunity to tie the game trailing 70-67 with under a minute remaining, but Smith pick-pocketed Nebraska’s best player, Kiera Hardy, and passed the ball to freshman Krista VandeVenter who was immediately fouled. VandeVenter drained one of her two foul shots to give Iowa a 71-67 advantage with nine seconds remaining to secure the victory.

Hardy netted a game-high 26 points, bolstered by 7-11 shooting from 3-point range. Jelena Spiric tallied 18 points and six rebounds in defeat. Hawkeye junior Johanna Solverson had another spectacular game, scoring 18 points on 7-12 shooting from the field, including 3-5 from beyond the arc, and collecting five rebounds and a game-high six assists. Senior Jenna Armstrong netted five points and matched a career best with six helpers.

FINAL GAME NOTES

• Iowa improved to 4-0 against Big XII opponents and 13-0 against non-conference foes this season.

• Iowa improved to 14-0 when collecting more steals than its opponent, 20-1 when having a higher field goal percentage than its opponent, 10-0 when having fewer turnovers and 18-2 when leading at halftime.

SCOUTING ARKANSAS STATE

Arkansas State won its first two WNIT games against Southeastern Conference teams at home; first bouncing Mississippi State (78-61), fol-lowed by Arkansas (98-84). The Lady Indians defeated Arkansas in front of 10,892, which is a school record at the Convocation Center. Arkansas State attempted 51 free throws, sinking 37 en route to the 14-point win. Five Arkansas State players scored double figures, including two players netting 20 points or more. Ali Carter tallied a team-high 25 points, while Adrianne Davie added 17 points and a game-high 14 rebounds.

Davie ranks first on the squad in scoring (14.8) and rebounding (10.0). Carter ranks second in scoring (13.9) and first in 3-pointers made (52). Rudy Sims ranks third in scoring (11.7) and first in assists (151).

Arkansas State tied for second in the east division of the Sun Belt Con-ference this season with a league mark of 11-3.

Arkansas State is coached by Brian Boyer, who is in his sixth year as head coach. Boyer has mentored the Lady Indians to a 40-20 (.667) record the last two seasons.

EMMERT MAKES HISTORY

Abby Emmert became only the second Iowa freshman to start at point guard. Prior to this season, Cara Consuegra was Iowa’s only freshman to start at point guard (1997).

FRESHMEN START FOR HAWKEYES

Power forward Krista VandeVenter has started all 31 games, while point guard Abby Emmert started 14 contests.

Emmert and VandeVenter became the first Iowa freshmen duo to start since the 1994-95 season where newcomers Tiffany Gooden and Tangela Smith started 17 and 15 games, respectively.

Head Coach Lisa Bluder received National Letters of Intent from Megan Skouby, Lindsey Nyenhuis, Wendy Ausdemore, Nicole Van-derPol and Kristi Smith to attend the University of Iowa.

“We feel this is a tremendous class that will add depth and height to our team,” said Bluder about her fourth Iowa recruiting class. Megan Skouby is a 6-6 center from Mentor, Ohio. As a junior, she led Mentor High School to a 24-2 record, averaging 17.9 points and pulling down 12.0 rebounds per contest, while shooting 63 percent from the field and 78 percent from the foul line. In her three years, the Cardinals posted a 66-10 record, including two district Division I championships. Skouby was an AP all-state honorable mention her freshman year. She was a Street & Smith all-America honor-able mention and AP third team all-State her sophomore season. Last year, Skouby earned AP first team all-State laurels.

Wendy Ausdemore is a 6-2 forward from Neola, Iowa. She was named MVP of Tri-Center High School’s basketball and volleyball teams the last three years. Ausdemore earned 2003 first team all-state and all-conference laurels in basketball. She was named the Southwest Iowa Volleyball Player of the Year, earned second team all-state and first team all-conference accolades in 2003. Ausdemore was named the 2004 AAU 17-and under Outstanding Amateur Ath-lete.

Kristi Smith, a 5-6 point guard from Thornton, Colorado, com-petes for Horizon High School. She has been a three-year starter and earned first team all-conference accolades. Last year, Smith was named to the Class 5A all-tournament team and also was recognized on the all-state team. As a junior, she helped advance her high school team to the Class 5A Final Four.

Lindsey Nyenhuis, a 5-7 guard from Grand Rapids, Michigan, competes for Forest Hills Northern High School. A two-year team captain and all-conference selection, she became the first girl to reach 1,000 points at her high school. Nyenhuis was also an all-state and all-area honorable mention selection. She also played for the West-ern Lakers AAU team for eight years. The Lakers won six-of-seven AAU state championships and finished in the “Sweet 16” three times at AAU nationals.

Nicole VanderPol is a 6-1 forward from Grundy Center, Iowa. Competing for Grundy Center High School, VanderPol is a three-time all-conference selection and was named Most Valuable Player in her conference as a sophomore and junior. As a junior, VanderPol averaged 19.1 ppg and 9.7 rpg in leading the Spartans to a runner-up finish at the Class 2A state tournament, where she earned all-tour-nament accolades. She was named first team all-State by the Des Moines Register, the Iowa Newspaper Association and North Central

District.

This is the second time Bluder has put together a five-player re-cruiting class. Bluder inked Lindsay Richards, Johanna Solverson, Morgan Kasperek, Crystal Smith and Tiffany Reedy in the fall of 2001, which was her first recruiting class at Iowa.

THUNDER AND LIGHTNING

Guard Crystal Smith has been one of league’s top offensive and defensive player through nine games. The junior was named MVP of the KCRG-TV9 Hawkeye Challenge and Junkanoo Jam. Smith ranks first on the team and fifth in Big Ten in scoring (16.7), first on the team and eighth in conference free throw percentage (.781) and first on the team and fourth in league steals (2.42). The native of Haughton, LA, netted 20 points or more ten times, which ranks sixth in the Big Ten. She netted a career-high 33 points at Drake on Dec. 18. Smith’s performances turned some heads around the nation. “Crystal is just an outstanding player,” said Iowa State Head Coach Bill Fennelly. “She’s an impact player on both ends of the floor. I hope we don’t have to play a guard as good as her the rest of the season.”

“I’ve been around the game a long time and Crystal is as good a player I’ve ever seen,” said Northern Iowa Head Coach Tony DiCecco. “She has a lot of tools. She’s extremely difficult to defend because at a split second she’s at full speed. She’s lightning quick and I tip my hat to her.”

“She’s so lighting fast. She has to be the most improved player in the Big Ten,” said Penn State Head Coach Rene Portland.

Center Jamie Cavey has been a force down in the post. The senior tri-captain, ranks second on the team and sixth in the Big Ten in scoring (16.3) and first on the team and third in the conference in field goal percentage (.557).

Cavey has scored double figures in 28-of-31 contests. Furthermore, she has scored double digits in 70 of her last 73 games, dating back to the 2002-03 season. Cavey has led Iowa in scoring 12 of the last 18 contests. She was named to the KCRG-TV9 Hawkeye Challenge and Junkanoo Jam all-Tournament teams.

RICHARDS TO REDSHIRT

Iowa Head Coach Lisa Bluder on Jan. 11, announced that junior point guard Lindsay Richards will redshirt this season.

“Lindsay has decided to take the redshirt this year,” said Bluder. “I think it’s a great decision. For us to have her healthy for two full years will be a great benefit to our program.”

The junior has recovered and has been participating in practices. “There’s a big difference between being able to participate and being able to compete,” commented Richards. “At this time I don’t feel I’m at the level I need to be at.”

Richards underwent successful surgery on July 7 to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament in her right knee. The native of Barrington, IL, sustained the injury during practice with the Big Ten All-Stars before the team left for Australia in June, 2004. This was the second time in as many years she underwent surgery to repair a damaged ACL in her right knee. Richards’ first ACL injury came in a home game against Denver on December 12, 2002. Richards started all 29 games for the Hawkeyes last year. She ranked fifth on the team in scoring (5.4 ppg) and free throw percentage (39-51, .765), second in assists (85) and fourth in steals (27). Her 2.93 assists average ranked 11th in the Big Ten. Richards was also an academic all-Big Ten selection last year.

Before injuring her knee as a freshman, she played in eight games as a reserve, averaging 4.5 ppg, 1.6 rpg and dishing out 29 assists. Richards will not receive a medical redshirt for her freshman season.

HAWKEYES ADD WALK-ON

Head Coach Lisa Bluder announced that Ebone Pope has been added to the 2004-05 roster as a walk-on. The 5-9 guard will wear No. 15.

Pope was a two-year starter at Marshalltown Community College. Pope averaged a team-best 11.3 ppg, 6.0 rpg and 2.7 apg last year. She was team captain, earned first team all-conference and first team all-tournament honors last season. The native of Ottumwa, IA, averaged 9.0 ppg and earned all-region honorable mention accolades her freshman year.

She graduated from Ottumwa High School in 2002, where she averaged 14.5 ppg, 3.5 apg and 3.3 rpg. Pope earned second team all-conference laurels her junior and senior years. Her high school team competed in the state tournament her senior season.

Pope joins Kristi Faulkner (2001-04) as the only walk-ons to make a Hawkeye roster under Coach Bluder.

JANE MEYER APPOINTED TO NCAA BASKETBALL COMMITTEE

University of Iowa Senior Associate Athletic Director Jane Meyer has been appointed by the NCAA Championships/Competition Cabinet to the 10-member Division I Women’s Basketball Committee. Meyer’s five-year term begins Sept., 2005 and continues through Sept., 2010. Meyer joins Jacki Silar of Duke and Tina Cheatham of the Southland Conference as new additions to the committee.

The basketball committee is responsible for the administration of the NCAA Basketball Championship Tournament. One of its primary functions is the selection of teams and creation of the bracket for the annual tournament. The committee also selects sites for future tournaments and assigns crews of officials.

“With my background in basketball, I have always had an interest in serv-ing on this committee,” said Meyer. “This is a good opportunity to represent our institution and conference.”

Meyer’s appointment marks the first time an Iowa athletic director has been chosen to the Women’s Basketball Committee. Bob Bowlsby has been on the Men’s Basketball Committee the past five seasons, serving as chair the last two.
