In 2007, the University of Iowa baseball team took another step forward, posting its best record in 14 years with a 31-23 mark. The Hawkeyes placed fourth in the Big Ten Conference at 17-13, and earned their second trip to the Big Ten Tournament in the last three years under Head Coach Jack Dahm, after going just once in the previous 15 years.
"This season was another positive step for the program," Dahm said. "We did a lot of good things both on and off the field, and it gives us a lot to build on for the coming year."
The Hawkeyes started off strong, splitting a pair of games at Arkansas-Little Rock and winning the Stetson Tournament with wins over national powers Notre Dame and No. 7 Nebraska.
"Winning the Stetson Tournament was an important way for us to start the season," Dahm said. "We beat two of the premier Northern programs in Notre Dame and Nebraska, and that proved to the team that we could compete with anybody. It really showed the progress we have made over the last few years."
