Iowa Will Face Utah State In Kansas City

By JOHN BOHNENKAMP

Iowa’s men’s basketball team has added another neutral-court game to its 2024-25 schedule.

The Hawkeyes will play Utah State in the NABC’s Hall of Fame Classic on November 22 at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City.

The game is part of a doubleheader — Saint Louis will play Wichita State in the other game.

The game will be Iowa’s first in Kansas City since the 2009-10 season when the Hawkeyes faced Texas and Wichita State in the Guardians Classic. 

Iowa has another neutral-court game set later in the nonconference schedule, when the Hawkeyes play Utah in Sioux Falls, South Dakota on December 21.

Iowa is 3-1 all-time against Utah State, including winning 94-75 in a neutral-site game in Sioux Falls on Dec. 18, 2021. 

The Hall of Fame Classic is in its 24th year in Kansas City and will be played as a doubleheader for the first time.
