Iowa's Patrick McCaffery gets hardship waiver approved
May. 29, 2020 2:18 pm
Iowa men's basketball forward Patrick McCaffery's hardship waiver petition has been approved by the Big Ten Conference, restoring his freshman year of eligibility.
McCaffery played in just the first two games of the 2019-20 season before sitting out because of residual health and wellness issues related to his thyroid.
He is Iowa City West's all-time leading scorer and was a three-time all-state honoree. He joins Hawkeyes senior guard Jordan Bohannon and sophomore Jack Nunge as players who had their hardship waiver petitions approved this offseason.
