Seventh ranked Maryland outscored the sixth ranked Iowa women 27-8 in the second quarter and crushed the Hawkeyes 96-68 , ending their hopes of a second straight Big Ten regular season title. Iowa shot only 36 percent and committed 24 turnovers.

That’s Iowa coach Lisa Bluder. Maryland connected on 14 of 25 from three point range.

Iowa closes the regular season Sunday at home against second ranked Indiana.
