Sutton, excellent around the basket, has a couple putbacks. Pearson, committed to Ohio University, clearly is relishing the challenge of going against a...

DeMatha Guard Serious About Iowa Too
Earlier this week, I wrote about how Iowa Coach Steve Alford was at the City Title game to watch DeMatha guard Jeff Peterson. Well, with the Stags taking a brief break from practice this week -- they play in the Alhambra Catholic Invitational Tournament that begins March 15 -- Peterson...

Iowa Serious About DeMatha Guard
Guess that Iowa is pretty serious about DeMatha point guard Jeff Peterson. While Xavier and St. Louis had assistant coaches at last night's City Title game to see Peterson play, Iowa Coach Steve Alford was at Verizon Center last night. Peterson had a splendid game, with eight steals and eight...
