UNIVERSITY OF IOWA

The University of Iowa and athletic director Gary Barta are under investigation for violation of federal Title IX laws. The complaint against the University of Iowa was filed by current women’s field hockey players Chandler Ackers, Jessy Silfer, Natalie Cafone, and former player Dani Haemon. The report was filed after Tracey Griesbaum, the now former field hockey coach, was fired for being too hard on players.

The athletes who filed the complaint aren’t buying it. -Jackson McNally, The Tab- Read More
