AMES, Iowa – Sophomore Ashley Joens poured in 41 points to lead Iowa State (7-2) past Wright State (5-4), 79-71, on Sunday afternoon at Hilton Coliseum. Joens’ 41 points are one shy of the single-game program record of 42 set by Tonya Burns on Jan. 18, 1984 vs. Nebraska, and are the most by any Cyclone since 2003.

Joens knocked down 12-of-23 attempts from the field and was once again phenomenal at the free throw line, making 15-of-16 at the stripe. Joens added 13 rebounds, four assists and two steals for good measure.
