GET TO KNOW HER

Lindsey Nyenhuis, Iowa

Lindsey Nyenhuis had a dream internship last summer working in Los Angeles for Fox Corporate Communications. She wrote bios for upcoming reality shows, wrote press releases and even mingled with some Hollywood celebrities during her six-week stay. Her goal is to work on-camera for the Big Ten Network or back in Los Angeles at Fox. The outgoing guard maintains a personal video blog covering behind the scenes of her senior season with the Iowa Hawkeyes. Watch Lindsey’s story at BigTenNetwork.com or on the Get to Know Her Club’s page on Facebook.

Big Ten Media Day

Here it is. Our big return to regular coverage of Big Ten Women's Basketball.

On October 26, 2008 all the Coaches gathered in Chicago for the media to be interviewed about their teams and the up coming season. We include a little of that but felt that it would be a little boring for the coaches to say the same thing over and over to the more then 125 accredited media members in attendance. So we took a slightly different approach to the day.
