Logic, Taylor named team captains

Iowa women’s basketball coach Lisa Bluder announced Wednesday that senior Theairra Taylor and junior Sam Logic have been named the team captains for the 2013-14 season.

“Theairra and Samantha are exceptional leaders and will serve as terrific role models for our young players,” Bluder said in a press release. “They are perfect examples of what a true student-athlete should be within our program.”

Taylor, the Hawkeyes’ lone senior, was named the team’s Most Improved Player last season. She started all 34 games and averaged 8.7 points and 4.5 rebounds per game.

Logic started all 34 games last season and was named a third-team All-Big Ten selection. The Racine, Wis., native set a school record for single-season assists with 217 last season. Her 6.4 assists per game ranked 15th in the NCAA.
