The Hawkeyes led by 14 in the second quarter, but the Terrapins (11-4, 2-2) erased the deficit and led 44-41 after an 11-0 run in the third quarter. Iowa retook the lead before the end of the quarter and never trailed in the fourth. Kaila Charles had 23 points and 18 rebounds for the Terrapins.

The Riverside Bulldogs picked up their second win of the boys hoops season on Thursday night with a 52-30 win over the Griswold Tigers. The Bulldogs took advantage of some outside looks against the Griswold zone and shot well enough to make the difference. Riverside connected on 6 threes in the opening half and took a 26-15 lead into the break. Riverside Head Coach Nicholas Kroon felt they attacked the zone well from outside.

Drake Woods knocked down 3 of those triples in the first half and added two more in the third quarter to help the Bulldogs push away. The Bulldogs expanded the lead to 18 by the end of the third and then sealed the game with 9-10 shooting from the foul line in the 4th quarter. The Bulldogs did a nice job taking care of the ball and Coach Kroon said that was a huge difference from other games they didn’t have success in.

Woods finished with 16 points to lead all-scorers in the game. Riverside also got 12 from Brogan Allensworth who had an active night rebounding and blocking some shots as well. The Bulldogs improve to 2-7 on the season and will next host Logan-Magnolia on Friday night.

Griswold got 15 points from Jayden Amend, but no other Tiger finished in double-figures. The Tigers are still searching for their first win and fall to 0-9 on the year. They will play host to Essex on Friday night, a game you can see on Griz Tiger Vision in the KJAN Video Network.

Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Devon Dotson had 20 points and six assists, David McCormack added 16 points and seven rebounds and No. 3 Kansas routed Iowa State 79-53. The Jayhawks closed the first half with a 21-3 run to take a 20-point lead. They improved to 12-2 overall and 2-0 in the Big 12, handing Iowa State its most-lopsided loss in the series since an 89-66 setback Feb. 12, 2011, in Lawrence. Kansas held star Iowa State guard Tyrese Haliburton to five points.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Tyrann Mathieu played so well for the Houston Texans last season that the Kansas City Chiefs signed him to a $42 million, three-year contract. He’s lived up to every dollar of it, getting voted second-team All-Pro at safety and first-team All-Pro at defensive back. And now, Mathieu will lead his new team against his old one when Kansas City welcomes the Texans to Arrowhead Stadium in the divisional round of the playoffs on Sunday.

UNDATED (AP) — Both No. 6 seeds advanced to the divisional round of the playoffs for the second year in a row, marking the first time that’s happened in consecutive seasons since the NFL instituted the current 12-team format in 1990. First, the Tennessee Titans sent the New England Patriots to their earliest exit in a decade. Then, the Minnesota Vikings knocked off the New Orleans Saints. No. 6 seeds are 10-4 in the wild-card round since 2013. But no No. 6 seed has reached the conference championship since 2010 when the New York Jets and Green Bay Packers both did it.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — The Big 12 Conference has fined West Virginia coach Bob Huggins $10,000 for referring to an officiating crew as “three blind mice” after a recent loss at third-ranked Kansas. The league announced the fine in a statement that also issued a public reprimand. Commissioner Bob Bowlsby says the fine and reprimand were appropriate because it was Huggins’ third such incident. Huggins made the comments in a postgame radio interview Saturday after the 60-53 loss in Lawrence, Kansas.

GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) — JT Gibson and reserve KJ Robinson both scored 17 points and Omaha held off North Dakota 66-62 in a battle of Summit League unbeaten teams. North Dakota trailed by as many as 10 in the second half but pulled within one on two free throws by Marlon Stewart with 1 1/2 minutes to go. Gibson missed a 3-pointer for the Mavericks but Marlon Ruffin grabbed the rebound and that led to a clutch 3 by Robinson with 36 seconds to go. Stewart had 22 points for the Fighting Hawks.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Tynice Martin scored 23 points, Kysre Gondrezick added 21 and No. 19 West Virginia pulled away in the second half to defeat Kansas 68-49, the Mountaineers’ eighth-straight win. Both players had 13 points in the second half as West Virginia pulled away from a 31-29 halftime lead. Gondrezick had eight points and Martin four in a 14-0 run that broke the game open in the fourth quarter. Kansas missed 17-straight shots beginning at the 2:12 mark of the third quarter. The drought ended with 2:56 left in the game. Mariane De Carvalho and Aniya Thomas had 12 points apiece for the Jayhawks.

AMES, Iowa (AP) – Devon Dotson had 20 points and six assists, David McCormack added 16 points and seven rebounds and No. 3 Kansas routed Iowa State 79-53. The Jayhawks closed the first half with a 21-3 run to take a 20-point lead.

Members of the Atlantic School Board, Wednesday night, received an update from Superintendent Steve Barber, with regard to the District’s Facilities projects. Barber said they are working with Snyder and Associates Engineers, to ensure that the sidewalk project in front of the Middle School meets ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) requirements. Portions of the sidewalks are in bad shape. Snyder’s, he said, will make sure local concrete businesses will have the opportunity to bid on the project, which will be taken care of this summer.

He said also, the firm will produce a cost estimate for the replacement of the roof above the Schuler gymnasium. And, in the near future, Barber says the fund-raising committee for the Atlantic Booster Club will put out a News Release on raising funds for the Facility Project, for the addition of turf to the Trojan Bowl, as discussed last June. As it currently stands, donation recognition levels will begin with: “Players” at $300-$999; Those who contribute $1,000 to $2,499 are at the “Black: level; The “Gold” level is for funds from $5,000 to $9,999; “Letter Winner” is $10,000 to $49,999; and, “Trojan Head” level donation recognition is for those donations of $50,000 and above.

Barber said work on “Moving dirt” continues at the Trojan Bowl, and that work on the concession stands will move forward, weather permitting, after the permafrost is no longer a factor…sometime in April.

Scoreboard options

Activity Director Andy Mitchell spoke to the Board about three options for scoreboards at the District’s Athletic Facilities. The Trojan Bowl Scoreboard  favored by the School Board, has the words “Atlantic” on the left and “Trojans” on the right, with digital scores and video information (such as final track results) in the center, flanked at the bottom by smaller, billboard sponsors.

The pricing for each of the three scoreboard options varies with the design and overall size. Mitchell will gather more information on the scoreboards and bring that back to the School Board, during their meeting in February.

The Atlantic boys swim team was in action for a triangular against large school teams Waukee and Sioux City West. Waukee came out with two wins in the team scoring 60-34 over Sioux City West and 78-12 over Atlantic. Sioux City West topped Atlantic 76-17.
