Sister Athletes Suffer Devastating Injuries Hours Apart

Eighth-ranked Iowa's senior basketball player, Taylor McCabe, will miss the remainder of her season due to a torn ACL. The injury occurred during Sunday's game against Ohio State in Iowa City. Her surgery is scheduled for Monday. The news came just hours after her sister, Peyton McCabe of Drake, also sustained an injury. Peyton injured her right ankle during Drake's game in Des Moines and had to be helped off the court.

Taylor, a Fremont, Nebraska native, has been a vital player for the Iowa Hawkeyes. She was part of two national championship teams and started all 20 games this season. She holds a career 3-point shooting percentage tied for the program's best. Peyton, a sophomore from Blair, Nebraska, had been increasing her playing time. She was on the court for 16 minutes and recorded five points and two assists before her injury.
