AMES, Iowa (AP) — Kalani Brown scored 25 points, Lauren Cox had 21 points, 15 rebounds and a career-high nine blocks, and No. 4 Baylor beat Iowa State 79-50 on Wednesday for its 13th straight win. Kristy Wallace scored 16 points for the Lady Bears (16-1, 6-0 Big 12), who never trailed in picking up their sixth straight league win by at least 22 points.

Bridget Carelton had 24 points for the Cyclones, who’ve lost five of six. It’s no shame to lose to a team as talented as Baylor. But barring a miracle, the Cyclones will miss the NCAA Tournament for the second time in three years after earning nine straight bids. Though coach Bill Fennelly has a lifetime contract for a reason, next year will be crucial for a program used to competing at a high level.

Iowa State hosts No. 17 West Virginia on Saturday.
