Okay, so, I’ve been seeing a lot of buzz online about “Jan Jensen wife,” and honestly, I got curious too. I mean, Jan Jensen, the new head coach for the Iowa Hawkeyes women’s basketball team – that’s big news! Naturally, people want to know more about her, including her personal life.
So, I started digging around. My first move? I hit up some sports websites. You know, the usual places where you’d find info on coaches and players. I stumbled upon a few articles mentioning Jan Jensen’s wife, Julie Fitzpatrick. Turns out, she’s a physical therapist, and they have two kids together. That’s sweet, right?
But, I wanted to learn more. I scrolled through more articles, and I found that Julie was also a former teammate of Jan’s. That got me thinking – they must have a lot of shared history! I also read that she was with Jan when they were hanging out with other former teammates, including Jennie Baranczyk, the Oklahoma head coach, and Lisa Bluder, who’s been Jan’s boss at Drake and Iowa for like, 32 years, Jenni Fitzgerald, you know. That’s a long time!
Then I dug a little deeper into Jan’s background. I learned she’s been with the Iowa women’s basketball team for 25 seasons! And this is her first as the head coach. That’s huge! She’s from Kimballton, Iowa, by the way. I also found out she was a star player at Drake, even leading NCAA Division I women’s basketball in scoring back in 1990-91. No wonder she’s such a great coach!
So, after all this digging, I feel like I have a better picture of who Jan Jensen and her wife are. They’re both accomplished women with a shared love for basketball. It’s pretty cool to see how their paths have intertwined, both on and off the court.
Anyway, that’s my little deep dive into the world of Jan Jensen and her wife, Julie Fitzpatrick. I just wanted to share what I found. It’s always interesting to learn more about the people behind the sports headlines, right?
I hope you found this interesting.
