Sydney Affolter previews Iowa women’s basketball vs. Kansas

Glad to have you back!

👍

A stifling defense isn't necessary every night, but there are important games we won't win without it; so, just bring it every night. This team has taken a big step forward in owning the defensive end of the court. I'm also thrilled to see a renewed focus on boxing out (sometimes to a fault, allowing the other team to get the ball, rather than pursuing the rebound). Excellent coaching and talented, hard-working young ladies...it's exciting! Be where your feet are, young ladies. Let's beat Kansas. Go Hawks!!

GO HAWKS!

Love Sid, hope she gets back to 100% soon. She’s a monster of the best kind.

Syd is great. I'm gutted to find out she has an injury which will permanently require management as long as she plays, and while I was desperate to see her back on court and get more minutes now I just want her to look after herself and take as long as it takes. One of what I think of as 'the big 5' (the Goat, the Glue, the Power Puffs, Pretty eyes and Southside Syd) I look forward to seeing more of her in good time.
