Well, Printy not only saw action against Northern
Illinois — she was the first reserve off the bench
— and she contributed 11 points in Iowa's 63-40
victory.
"It's a great feeling, I can't even describe it,"
Printy said. "It's so fun to be out there with my
teammates, and play in front of these fans. I
couldn't stop smiling the whole time."
The story gets better. Five days later, Printy pops
a 3-pointer with one tick left in regulation to
pull Bluder's Bunch into a 59-all tie with Middle
Tennessee State. She then proceeds to deliver the
Hawkeyes to a date with North Carolina in the
22
2012 Preseason WNIT final with eight points in
the extra session.
"If I can risk stating the obvious, it's nice to have
Jaime Printy back," Bluder — said.
Yeah, the college basketball season is very young…
but that's a pretty good story in the making.
Go Hawks!
