Incredible homecoming for Carleton

Nov 27 • Feature Story, Local Sports • No Comments on Incredible homecoming for Carleton

Chatham’s own Bridget Carleton (21), a senior with the Iowa Cyclones, watches for a rebound Nov. 21 against the Eastern Michigan Eagles.

Carleton was joined by about 1,200 cheering family and friends as she made a special return to her hometown on Nov. 21, armed with her Cyclones teammates.

With a final score of 85-59, Iowa won the NCAA Division-I game hosted at St. Clair College’s HealthPlex.

The Cyclones try to play a game close to home for each senior, but this marked the first time the team came north of the border to play.
