Three takeaways from Iowa’s weekend series against Washington State
The Iowa baseball team dropped three of four games to Washington State this weekend in a struggling to start to the season.
After losing three consecutive days in Cleburne, Texas, in allowing more than a half-dozen runs in each game, the Hawkeyes avoided the sweep with a 14-3 win on Sunday. But that win doesn’t overshadow a 4-6 start to the season before the home opener on Monday.
Bullpen falls back to Earth
Last weekend, the Iowa relief pitching staff had a great weekend in the Stetson Tournament: 10 innings, one earned run, and 13 strikeouts. This weekend was a complete turnaround.
In game one, the bullpen tallied eight innings after Bryson Walker’s premature start. The unit was never able to give the offense a chance, sacrificing 10 runs in a four-inning stretch.
On Saturday, with a chance to win the game late, the relief system was detrimental to the loss yet again. Fifth-year Ben DeTaeye allowed four runs in the seventh and eighth innings, allowing the Cougars to come back and win, 6-4.
In totality, the unit gave up 17 earned runs in just over 14 innings of work while walking eight and striking out 14 batters. New pitching coach Sean Kinney has struggled to get a ton of consistency from a unit that struggled the previous season too.
Ben Wilmes stays hot
One Hawkeye that had question marks going into the 2025 season was fourth-year outfielder Ben Wilmes. The past two seasons have seen Wilmes split time at the position, hitting .260 from the plate and tallying 50 runs batted in.
With the departure of outfielders Kyle Huckstorf and Sam Petersen, Wilmes has been asked to play the position more than he ever has in his Hawkeye career. So far this season, Wilmes has been one of the leaders of the Iowa offensive unit and showed why this past weekend.
Going 5-of-15 from the plate, Wilmes was a consistent force in the lineup. He drew five walks, hit two RBIs, and moved his batting average to .366 on the season.
Wilmes this season has been a steady presence so far, leading off for the Hawkeyes and filling in some of the big shoes that have been left by Huckstorf and Petersen over the past two years.
Reece Beuter helps avoid the sweep
After Saturday’s disappointing loss, Iowa head coach Rick Heller put the ball in fifth-year Reece Beuter’s hands to somehow salvage the weekend.
Beuter this season has been an unexpected plus so far in the starting rotation. Filling in the Sunday spot, Beuter has accumulated a 1.64 earned run average while holding batters to a .158 clip at the plate.
With the series on the line, Beuter was sharp yet again. Going six innings, Beuter allowed two earned runs on six hits and his third win of the season. This is the third solid start of the season for Beuter who has made a complete 360 from last year’s performance.
Up next
The Iowa baseball team returns to action on Monday, March 3, to face Loras College in the first home game of the season. First pitch is at 5:00 p.m. with coverage on Big Ten Plus.

19-Year-Old Transgender University of Washington Student Fatally Stabbed
Sign up for The Agenda, Them’s news and politics newsletter, delivered Thursdays.
This story contains descriptions of fatal violence against a transgender person.
The Seattle Police Department are searching for a suspect after a 19-year-old University of Washington student was stabbed to death in an off-campus student apartment complex on May 10.
Seattle Police Department Detective Eric Muñoz told NBC News that the victim is “believed to be a 19-year-old transgender female” who was enrolled at the university. The victim has not yet been publicly identified by name. She was found in the housing complex laundry room shortly after 10 p.m. on Sunday night.
The housing complex, Nordheim Court, is privately managed but affiliated with the university, located near an upscale shopping center in Seattle’s U-Village neighborhood. According to NBC News, residents received an official alert from UW to stay inside their homes and lock all windows and doors — an alert that was lifted around 1 a.m. with the acknowledgment that “a death investigation remains ongoing.”
According to SPD detective Eric Muñoz, police and the fire department attempted lifesaving measures but ultimately “pronounced the victim deceased at the scene.”
“Officers are actively searching for the suspect, believed to be a black male with a beard, 5’6-8” tall, wearing a vest with button up shirt, and blue jeans,” Muñoz wrote in a blotter report.
Muñoz noted that the victim would be identified by the medical examiner’s office in “the coming days.” The SPD did not immediately respond to Them’s request for comment.
This is the seventh known trans person to be violently killed in 2026. In mid-April, 39-year-old transmasculine farmer Luca RedBeard was fatally shot in rural New Mexico. Last week, police in Marion County, Florida opened a homicide investigation into the shooting death of a 29-year-old who went by multiple names and referred to “transitioning” on social media. In Kentucky, an investigation into the disappearance of 22-year-old trans college student Murry Foust remains ongoing.
Police are asking anyone with information about the University of Washington case to call the Violent Crimes Tip Line at 206-233-5000, emphasizing that anonymous tips are accepted.
This is a developing story.

How the Sea Mar Museum Is Preserving Latino History in Washington
On a quiet stretch of Des Moines Memorial Drive in South Seattle, the Sea Mar Museum of Chicano/a/Latino/a Culture rises like a long‑overdue acknowledgment. Its brick exterior doesn’t shout; it invites. Inside, the rooms hum with the stories of families who crossed borders, harvested fields, organized classrooms, and built communities across Washington state—often without seeing their histories reflected anywhere on a museum wall.
For Rogelio Riojas, founder and CEO of Sea Mar Community Health Centers, the museum is a promise kept. “We wanted to make sure the contributions of Latinos in Washington state are recognized and preserved for future generations,” he told The Seattle Times when the museum opened in 2019. It was a simple statement, but one that captured decades of work—both visible and invisible—by the region’s Latino communities.
Walking through the galleries feels like stepping into a living archive. One of the most arresting sights is a pair of original farmworker cabins, transported from Eastern Washington. Their narrow wooden frames and sparse interiors speak volumes about the migrant families who once slept inside after long days in the fields. The cabins are not replicas or artistic interpretations; they are the real thing, weathered by sun, dust, and time. They anchor the museum’s narrative in the physical realities of labor that shaped the state’s agricultural economy.
Sea Mar describes the museum as “dedicated to sharing the history, struggles, and successes of the Latino community in Washington state,” a mission that plays out in photographs, letters, student newspapers, and oral histories contributed by community members themselves. These aren’t artifacts chosen from afar—they’re family treasures, personal archives, and memories entrusted to the museum so they can live beyond the kitchen tables and shoeboxes where they were once kept.
The story extends beyond the museum walls. Just steps away is the Sea Mar Community Center, a sweeping, light‑filled gathering space designed for celebrations, performances, workshops, and community events. With room for nearly 500 people, a full stage, a movie‑theater‑sized screen, and a catering kitchen, the center was built with one purpose: to give the community a place to see itself, gather, and grow. Sea Mar describes it as “a welcoming space for families, organizations, and community groups to gather, celebrate, and learn,” and on any given weekend, it lives up to that promise.
Together, the museum and community center form a cultural campus—part historical archive, part living room for the region’s Latino communities. Students come to learn about the Chicano activists who reshaped the University of Washington in the late 1960s. Families come to see their own histories reflected in the exhibits. Visitors come to understand a story that has long been present in Washington, even if it wasn’t always visible.
The Sea Mar Museum is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., offering free admission to anyone who walks through its doors. For many, it’s more than a museum—it’s a recognition, a gathering place, and a testament to the people who helped shape the Pacific Northwest.
