It was another fourth quarter collapse on the road for the second ranked Iowa Hawkeye women.

(Rob Brooks with the call on the Hawkeye Network) Nebraska erased a 14-point fourth quarter deficit to stun the Hawkeyes 82-79. Iowa was outscored 27-10 in the final quarter.

That’s Iowa coach Lisa Bluder. The Hawkeyes made only four of 17 shots in the fourth quarter.

Caitlin Clark scored 31 points and dished out 10 assists. She is seven points shy of the NCAA all-time scoring record. Kate Martin had 20 points and connected on Iowa’s only two three pointers in the final quarter.

Iowa falls to 11-2 in the Big Ten and 22-3 overall.

The Panthers won the District team title with 224 points. Atlantic finished second with 143 points, qualified three wrestlers for the State Tournament, and Greene County finished third with 134 points with four state qualifiers. Prairie City, Monroe finished fourth with 112 points and four state qualifiers; Knoxville, fifth, 104, and two state qualifiers; Perry sixth, 85, with two in the state tournament; Saydel, seventh, with 64 and one qualifier, and Van Meter, was eighth with one state qualifier.

AMES, Iowa – Iowa State (13-9, 7-5 Big 12) fell to No. 24 Oklahoma (17-6, 11-1 Big 12) by a final of 86-72 Saturday night. The loss to the Sooners, who sit atop the Big 12 standings, was the Cyclones’ first Big 12 defeat at home this season.

Iowa State could not overcome 15 first half turnovers as OU took a 14-point lead into the third and would end the game ahead by 14.

Audi Crooks had her 21st-straight game with 10 or more points, totaling an ISU-leading 14 with eight coming from free throws while also having six assists and rebounds. Emily Ryan put up 13 points going 5-of-8 from the field while making 3-of-5 shots from deep. Ryan also had four rebounds, three assists and a steal. Nyamer Diew was the third in double figures with 10.

How it Happened

ISU began with a lead of three before Oklahoma got on the board with a triple at 8:04, to which Ryan answered with a 3-pointer. With ISU up 8-7, Jalynn Bristow kept the Cyclones ahead with a wide open 3-pointer. OU would go on to get its first lead of 12-11 at the midway point. Hannah Belanger followed to send in the layup through her defenders and converting on the and-one to make it 14-12, ISU. Three lead changes followed before Oklahoma took an eight-point lead of 27-19 to end the first.

Kelsey Joens and Ryan delivered 3-pointers on back-to-back Iowa State possessions to trim OU’s lead to four (31-27) with 7:29 remaining in the second. Oklahoma would respond going up by double digits after a run of six. Turnovers proved costly as ISU committed 15 in the first half, resulting in 17 OU points as the visitors took a 49-35 lead into halftime.

Oklahoma remained up by double digits, leading 56-45 at the third quarter media timeout. Isnelle Natabou made it an eight-point game (56-48) after a made free throw and a layup, but Oklahoma followed with a 10-0 run to take its largest lead at 66-48. At the end of the third, Oklahoma led 69-55.

OU would go on to seal the 86-72 victory.

PUERTO VALLARTA, Mexico – In its second-straight matchup with a top-15 opponent, Iowa State (1-2) came up short in a comeback effort against No. 7 Washington (3-1), falling to the top-ten Huskies 8-4.

What was a pitcher’s dual between the starting arms burst open in the sixth inning, as nine of the twelve runs were scored in the sixth frame.
Washington led 2-1 heading into the top of the sixth and began to tee off, using a pair of homers to power their four-run win.

Iowa State had a home run of their own on the day, as Carli Spelhaug launched one into right field to plate the first Cyclone run. ISU has homered in all three of its games this season.

Spelhaug was the lone ISU batter to secure multiple hits as the Washington staff held the team to just three total. Milaysia Ochoa had the other hit and scored one of the team’s four runs.

Saya Swain (1-1) got the start in the circle, going 4.2 innings and allowing just two runs with four punchouts. Jaiden Ralston, Tatum Johnson and Karlie Charles all saw action in relief.

The Huskies had a pair of players with three hits and a pair of players with two RBI. The strong pitching of starter Lindsay Lopez (1-0) and the closing outs from Ruby Meylan (1) shut down the Cyclone offense as the two combined to allow just three hits and one run while striking out six.

DES MOINES, Iowa – A fast start and Grace Berg’s 28 points helped the Drake women’s basketball team avenge its only conference loss with a 79-64 victory over Illinois State at the Knapp Center on Saturday afternoon.

The Bulldogs (18-5, 11-1 Missouri Valley Conference) led from the start in the annual Pink Game, took a 22-point lead into the second half and never faced a serious threat over the final 20 minutes. Drake has won three straight since a 79-70 loss at Illinois State two weeks ago and sits alone atop the conference.

Berg got the first basket of the game on a layup after Anna Miller grabbed an offensive rebound and slipped her a pass and kept scoring from there, falling two points shy of her career high. She knocked down two of the Bulldogs’ five three-pointers, grabbed seven rebounds and handed out two assists.

Miller put up her second straight double-double and ninth of the season with 10 points and 11 rebounds, while Courtney Becker doubled up for the third time with 15 points – one short of her career best – and 10 rebounds.

Drake outrebounded the Redbirds 43-32, the 17th time the Bulldogs have won the battle on the boards, and outscored them 50-26 in the paint.

“Huge thanks to Bulldog nation,” Suzie Glazer Burt Head Coach Allison Pohlman said after the game. “It was rocking in here and we love the pink. I credit our team too…we were as ready as we needed to be today. Illinois State is a really good shooting team, and our women just understood the coverages. We just did exactly what we needed to do to execute and get a win.”

The Bulldogs hit the road for their next two games, at Murray State on Thursday, Feb. 15, and at Belmont on Saturday, Feb. 17. Their next home game is Thursday, Feb. 22 against Missouri State at 6 p.m.

AMES, Iowa – No. 14 Iowa State used a stingy defensive effort on the way to its 14^th-straight win at Hilton Coliseum as it defeated TCU, 71-59, Saturday afternoon. The Cyclones move to 18-5 overall and 7-3 in Big 12 action while TCU drops to 16-7 overall and 5-5 in league play.

The Cyclones took advantage of a TCU scoring drought in the first half that lasted more than seven minutes as it gained separation and never gave up the lead, leading from start to finish for the second-straight game.

ISU shot 50 percent from the field in the game, making 8-of-19 3-pointers and going 15-for-18 at the free-throw line.

How It Happened
The first half featured a stifling defensive effort in the first 11 minutes as ISU jumped out a 20-8 lead and held the Horned Frogs to just three field goals during the stretch. TCU would claw back, closing the gap to four points at 24-20 with 3:00 remaining in the opening period. Rob Jones assisted on 3-pointers by Curtis Jones and Tamin Lipsey down the stretch and the Cyclones went into the break with a 30-22 lead.

Nine Cyclones scored in the first half led by Tre King’s nine points.

ISU extended the lead to 17 points in the second half before the Horned Frogs used a 10-0 run to get it down to 49-42 with just under 10 minutes left. But again, ISU had the answer with a run of its own to seal the victory.

Top Performers
Curtis Jones came off the bench to finish with 13 points, his 12^th game of the season in double figures.

King led all Cyclone scorers with 15 points, finishing 6-for-7 at the line. Gilbert was also in double figures for ISU with 13 points to go along with seven assists.

Lipsey finished with seven points and six assists but saw his streak of 34 consecutive games with a steal come to an end. It was the longest streak in school history and the second-longest active streak in the nation.

Emanuel Miller scored a game-high 18 points on 8-for-12 shooting for TCU.

Up Next
The Cyclones travel to Big 12 newcomer Cincinnati for a Tuesday evening showdown. The contest will begin at 6 p.m. on ESPN2.
