Coach Paul Rhoads announced at his press conference today that nagging injuries have ended the careers of senior center Mike Knapp and receiver Alex Sandvig.

Losing Knapp hurts, but the 'Clones played without him for most of last year (Knapp was lost for the year after four games). The Cyclones need all the depth on the offensive line that they can get. Looks like Alex Alvarez will be the man in the middle.

Sandvig doesn't hurt as much due to the depth at receiver.
