Watch: Iowa Hawkeyes student manager sinks half-court shot, mobbed by team
CBSN
The Iowa Hawkeyes basketball team celebrated senior night with a big win over Northwestern on Monday. But it was a non-uniformed member of the team who made the biggest splash.
Student manager Jack Devlin got to take a half-court shot during the game's final media timeout. The senior missed the first attempt, but drilled the second shot and was immediately mobbed by his teammates.
Devlin is part of the university's REACH (Realizing Educational and Career Hopes) program for students ages 18 to 25 years old with intellectual, cognitive and learning disabilities. He has been a manager with the Hawkeyes since 2018 and a campus favorite throughout his time in Iowa City.

In the past year, over 135 million passengers traveled to the U.S. from other countries. To infectious disease experts, that represents 135 million chances for an outbreak to begin. To identify and stop the next potential pandemic, government disease detectives have been discreetly searching for viral pathogens in wastewater from airplanes. Experts are worried that these efforts may not be enough.
