IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Melo Trimble scored 20 points and 25th-ranked Maryland rallied after blowing a 15-point lead to outlast Iowa 84-76 Thursday night for its fourth straight victory.

Trimble hit back-to-back 3-pointers in the final three minutes to key the Terrapins (17-2, 5-1 Big Ten), who have also won three in a row on the road.

Maryland was threatening to blow out the Hawkeyes (11-9, 3-4) before Iowa went on a 10-0 run midway through the second half. The Hawkeyes went ahead 72-69, but an 8-0 spurt fueled by Trimble’s 3s gave Maryland a lead it did not relinquish.

Anthony Cowan had 15 points and six assists for the Terrapins, who shot 56.6 percent from the floor.

Council Bluffs – The trout stocking scheduled for tomorrow (Friday, Jan. 20th) at Big Lake has been postponed until spring due to rapidly deteriorating ice conditions. The Iowa DNR says the family fishing event scheduled for this Saturday, Jan. 21 has been cancelled, and will not be re-scheduled.

The Iowa Hawkeyes try to bounce back from a lackluster effort in a loss at Northwestern when they host 25th ranked Maryland tonight (Thursday night). The Terrapins are 4-1 in the Big Ten and 16-2 overall.

Maryland’s guard tandem of junior Melo Trimble and freshman Anthony Cowan average better than 28 points per game. Iowa Coach Fran McCaffery says 6-9 freshman Ryan Kriener has earned additional playing time. After scoring a total of 30 points in Iowa’s first 17 games the Spirit Lake native has scored 20 points the past two games and has made nine of 11 shots.

Pre-game coverage on KJAN begins at 5-p.m., with the tip off set for 6:04-p.m. The game will also be televised by ESPN.

WACO, Texas (AP) — Nina Davis scored 17 points, Kalani Brown had 16 and second-ranked Baylor won its 16th consecutive game, beating Iowa State 68-42 Wednesday night in a surprisingly low-scoring contest.

In a game matching the Big 12’s two highest-scoring teams, Baylor (18-1, 7-0 Big 12) was held nearly 25 points below its national-best 92.6 per-game average. And the Lady Bears still won by 26 as Iowa State was held to a season low after 79 per game before that.

The Lady Bears took control with a 10-1 run in a 95-second span early in the second quarter, soon after Iowa State had missed shots on three consecutive possessions following Baylor turnovers with a chance to take the lead. Freshman forward Lauren Cox, who had two of those turnovers, had two baskets in the big spurt.

Cox finished with 12 points and eight rebounds. Bridget Carleton had 17 points and Jadda Buckley 15 for Iowa State (10-8, 1-6), which shot only 23 percent (13 of 56).

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Ore Arogundade shed his defender on a pick and hit a pretty 3-pointer from the wing, tying the game in overtime and Drake went on to defeat Southern Illinois 88-84 Wednesday night.

Arogundade, who scored a career-high 19 points on 6-for-9 shooting with four 3-pointers, stepped up with a 3, a key offensive board and two clutch free throws in the last 12 seconds of regulation to force a tie after Drake had lost a 13-point second-half lead. The Bulldogs (6-13, 4-3 Missouri Valley Conference) have won three of their last four.

Mike Rodriguez, who led Southern Illinois with 24 points, hit back-to-back buckets that put the Salukis ahead 76-71 with 18 seconds left in regulation before Arogundade tied it.

Reed Timmer led Drake with 20 points, De’Antae McMurray 18. Arogundade has scored 13 or more in six of the last seven games. Armon Fletcher added 18 points for the Salukis (11-9, 4-3) and Sean Lloyd a career-high 17.
