Speaker, I rise today to recognize a young woman from my district for making University of Iowa and Big Ten sports history. Recently, University of Iowa field hockey star Anthe Nijziel was awarded both Big Ten Co-Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year honors after leading the Hawkeyes to an impressive 16-1 regular season. Though each of these honors are an impressive feat on their own, Anthe has raised the bar, becoming the first Iowa student-athlete to win both awards in the same season and the third person in Big Ten history to win the Player of the Year title in more than one season. I would like to congratulate the entire Iowa field hockey team for a great season, and Head Coach Lisa Cellucci, who was named unanimous Big Ten Coach of the Year after being awarded Co-Coach of the Year last season. Congratulations to Anthe, Coach Cellucci, and the rest of the Iowa field hockey team and good luck as you head into the Big Ten tournament. Thank you, I yield back my time. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:30:49Z |
