AUSTIN, Texas (AP) – Jonathan Holmes scored 23 points and Cam Ridley had 16 points and 11 rebounds to lead Texas to an 86-76 win over No. 8 Iowa State on Saturday, sending the Cyclones to their third consecutive loss. The Longhorns (14-4, 3-2) got their biggest win of the season with their third in the row in the Big 12. Javan Felix scored 17 for Texas, including a big 3-pointer in the momentum-changing run in the second half.
Georges Niang scored 18 to lead Iowa State, which started the season 14-0. The Cyclones (14-3, 2-3) hadn’t lost three in a row since the 2010-2011 season and haven’t won in Austin since 2005. Melvin Ejim scored 17 for the Cyclones who went 11 of 32 on 3-pointers.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowans are dealing with another blast of winter weather that has caused snarled traffic and threatened to dump nearly a half-foot of snow on some areas. All of Iowa is under some type of weather advisory from the National Weather Service. Most of the northwestern half is under a winter weather advisory, with much of the southwestern half is under a wind advisory, with gusts of 45 mph or higher expected until sunset.
At Iowa City, a multi-vehicle pileup blamed on bad weather shut down the eastbound lanes of Interstate 80 on Saturday morning. At least one lane had reopened by late morning. The National Weather Service says a fast-moving winter storm could dump as much as 5 inches of snow in and around the Dubuque area on Saturday.
CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (AP) — Nate Buss scored 26 points and Seth Tuttle added 21 as Northern Iowa shot 67.4 percent from the field and defeated Missouri State 94-89 on Saturday. Buss hit 10 of 13 field goals and made 5 of 6 from beyond the arc, where the Panthers (10-8, 4-2 Missouri Valley Conference) were 13-of-21. Tuttle made 7 of 8 from the field.
Trailing 61-59 and facing its only deficit of the game, Northern Iowa went on a 20-6 run to take a 79-67 lead. Missouri State (12-6, 2-4) cut its deficit to 88-86 on a 3-pointer with 28 seconds left, but the Panthers then converted their final six free throw attempts. Ron Mvouika scored 28 for the Bears, who shot 59.3 percent from the field. Mvouika went 10 of 13 from the field and hit all six of his 3-point attempts.
It was Missouri State’s third straight loss.
Jim Field and Chris Parks have the call of the games played at Audubon High School.

In an update to a story we brought you early Saturday morning, on KJAN.com and during our newscasts, one-person was seriously injured during a rollover accident near the Schildberg Quarry Recreational Area, in Atlantic. Atlantic Fire and Rescue and Medivac Ambulance crews were dispatched at around 1:13-a.m. to an area north of the bridge on Buck Creek Road, just before Glacier Road, for a passenger vehicle that had rolled over.
County County Sheriff’s Deputy Josh McLaren told KJAN News a 1993 Buick LeSabre driven by 19-year old Daniel Schmeling, of Atlantic, was traveling north on Buck Creek road and had just crossed the bridge onto the gravel, when the car went out of control and rolled near the northwest corner of the intersection with Glacier Road. One of the passengers, a 14-year old male, was partially ejected and trapped under the vehicle. Another male passenger, age 18, suffered what are believed to have been minor injuries. Their names have not been released.
McLaren said while alcohol was NOT a factor in the crash, the accident remains under investigation.
