Wolverines stunned by Cherokee in volleyball state tournament

The #3 (3A) Dike-New Hartford volleyball team was stunned by #6 (3A) Cherokee Washington, falling 3-1 in a 3A state tournament quarterfinal Tuesday, as aired on 99 The Wave. In an intense first set, the teams traded points for most of the way before the Braves won 25-21. Set 2 proved to be a turning point. After DNH scored to begin the set, Cherokee rattled off the next 11 to take a commanding advantage, and led by double digits several times. But DNH closed the gap toward the end of the set, falling 25-20. DNH got back to their winning ways in set 3 with their backs against the wall, hitting .262 on their way to a 25-15 win, the most lopsided set of the match. But Cherokee closed strong to win 25-21 in set 4 to advance. Head Coach Diane Harms.

UNI Athletics overspends again, creating second-straight deficit

IOWA CITY — In the throes of systemic change across the college athletics landscape — shaking the foundations of university athletic departments nationwide — the University of Iowa is reporting another athletics budget record, while the University of Northern Iowa overspent its budget by millions for a second-straight year. After spending $3.2 million more than planned in the 2025 budget year, UNI Athletics in 2026 again spent $2.6 million more than projected — creating a $5.3 million deficit, given revenue was $2.8 million below budget. UNI’s 2026 athletics deficit was nearly double its $2.9 million deficit for fiscal 2025, when revenue was slightly above budget. And in both years, UNI Athletics took nearly $5.5 million from the main campus — as opposed to UI and Iowa State University athletics, which historically have been self-supporting. “The largest revenue shortfalls included (Missouri Valley Conference/NCAA) support, athletic marketing, football, and alumni/foundation support,” according to the UNI Athletics portion of a new Board of Regents fiscal report made public Tuesday. “Athletics marketing revenue also was short with fewer UNI-Dome suites sold in year one. Football ticket sales did not meet the projection in sales, further explaining the revenue shortfall.” UI Athletics, meanwhile, saw its
