Saturday’s victory over rival Iowa State marked a high point in what has been a difficult week for the entire Iowa family. First, the world learned of the death of former Hawkeye star Tyler Sash. This led the team decided to include Sash’s No. 9 on a helmet for Saturday’s game against rival Iowa State. Then, on Friday, Iowa basketball legend Roy Marble passed away due to brain cancer.
