UConn jumped out to a 10 point halftime lead and the 20th ranked Huskies cruised to a 71-53 win over the Iowa State men in the championship of the Phil Knight Invitational, handing the Cyclones their first loss.
That’s Cyclone coach T.J. Otzelberger. UConn dominated the glass with a 48-19 rebounding advantage.
It was the first loss for the Cyclones who drop to 5-1.
Eighth ranked North Carolina opened the fourth quarter with a 14-0 run and raced by the fifth ranked Iowa State women 73-64 in the championship of the Phil Knight Invitation in Portland. It was a game the Cyclones led by 17 in the second quarter.
That’s ISU coach Bill Fennelly. The Cyclones shot only 36 percent and were limited to 29 second half points.
Stephanie Soares had 19 pints and 11 rebounds and Ashley Joens scored 18 points as the Cyclones fall to 5-1. They host Southern Illinois-Edwardsville on Tuesday night.
(Radio Iowa) – Iowa State University economist Peter Orazem says while there have been gains, the number of Iowans who are working continues to lag pre-pandemic levels. “If you look at Iowans under the age of 45, labor force participation rates actually went up. It’s Iowans over 45 where labor force participation rates went down and they really went down for people over 55,” Orazem says. “…We don’t think that they’re coming back and so that’s going to be holding back the Iowa economy in terms of its ability to make up for for its lost labor.”
Iowa had one of the oldest labor forces in the country prior to the pandemic and Orazem says it appears many who opted to retire in the past 18 months are not going to return to the workforce. “We’re lagging the rest of the U.S. in terms of recovery of employment and that’s holding back, actually, the Iowa economy,” Orazem says.” Ten days ago, the Iowa Workforce Development agency announced the state had added back all the jobs that were lost due to the pandemic.
Orazem says the total number of employed Iowans still remains about one percent below pre-pandemic levels — and the labor participation rate is about two percent below what it was in February of 2020. “We’ve had three straight quarters of negative Gross State Product, which would meet the classic definition of a recession,” Orazem says. Orazem made his comments during a weekend appearance on “Iowa Press” on Iowa P-B-S.

A disappointing season came to a humiliating conclusion as Iowa State lost at fourth ranked TCU 62-14. The Cyclones finish with a record of 4-8.
That’s ISU coach Matt Campbell. It’s the Cyclone’s worst season since a 3-9 record in 2016.
Improvement will start with an offense that was the lowest ranked in the Big-12 and the run game generated only 92 yards per game.
The third ranked UConn women rallied from an 11-point third deficit to beat ninth ranked Iowa 86-79 in the championship game of the Phil Knight Legacy Tournament. The Hawkeyes made only 12-of-33 shots in the second half. Iowa coach Lisa Bluder.
