Judge Sends Pierce up the River for Two Years: Former Iowa Hawkeye Pierre Pierce will serve two years in prison for several charges that resulted from a January incident with his girlfriend. Pierce was found guilty on charges of third-degree burglary, false imprisonment, fourth-degree criminal mischief and assault with intent to commit sexual abuse. The judge ordered the sentences to be served concurrently, which means Pierce will be out sooner than he otherwise would be. Pierce expressed remorse for his actions during sentencing, as he apologized to the victim and said he wish he could change his past actions. Hawkeye coach Steve Alford kicked Pierce off the team last season after learning that he was the center of the police investigation. At the time, he was the team’s leading scorer.
