The Simpson women’s and men’s basketball teams make the road trip to Coe College today for an American Rivers Conference doubleheader. The Storm women defeated Loras to begin their run to a second straight conference title, and head coach Brian Niemuth says every team in the conference is now gunning for them, but that won’t phase his experienced group of players. The Storm men fell to the Duhawks to begin conference play last week, and are looking to play with a full roster after battling injuries to start the season. The games can be heard live on 94.3 KNIA with Andrew Swadner and Rick Wilson on the play-by-play. Pregame coverage begins at 1:45pm, with tip-off scheduled for 2pm.

The Simpson Storm fall sports teams have earned a total of 62 Academic All-Conference designations as released earlier this week. Men’s cross country placed 12 on the team, women’s cross country 10, football 9, women’s golf 3, men’s and women’s soccer each had 9, and women’s tennis and volleyball each had 5 named to the squad.
