I get the vibes that this is a high priority target for the staff.

Son of Mike Born who played at Iowa State and at one time was the director of scouting for the Trail Blazers. Bowen's grandpa played football at Drake and coached here for many years.
I saw Bowen play in Y cap city league this year. He's small but overcomes that with toughness and obvious talent. Would be a great add.

Someone told me that UNI has been recruiting him for a while and is considered the front runner. I have no idea whether either of those statements are factual or not. Anyone know?

I saw Bowen in the Cap City league. I asked DUB who the middle schooler was. And then I watch the kid dismantle older players. He's good. Real good.
Moving forward.....

I'm not sure if UNI is the front runner, but they offered a long time before Drake did. And, a whole lot of players from his AAU program end up at UNI. Kid can really play. Would love to see him at Drake.

Unsurprisingly, gaining some interest from Iowa State. Took an unofficial visit with Xavier Foster up in Ames yesterday.

Just stumbled across this tweet/article from a few weeks ago about Bowen. https://twitter.com/matthewbain_/status/1085986036730290177?s=21Sounds like the Bulldogs are still in hard on Bowen. I would LOVE to see him in blue. I’m still making the assumption that he’s a high priority for the staff right now.

Having Luke Vaske might help our chances?

I feel like I’ve seen him quite a few times so hopefully that’s good. Based on social media he seems to have a good relationship with the current players too.
Having Vaske probably doesn’t hurt either.

There aren't too many 5'11" players starting at high majors.
