Iowa State Uses Strong Second Half to Beat TCU

Sports

January 31st, 2015 by admin

AMES, Iowa (AP) – Georges Niang scored 23 points, floor leader Monte Morris added 16 and No. 15 Iowa State pulled away in the second half to beat TCU 83-66 on Saturday.

Iowa State (16-4, 6-2 Big 12) ran its homecourt winning streak to 19 with its first double-digit win in conference play. The Cyclones’ previous five league victories had been decided by a total of 18 points.

Bryce Dejean-Jones scored 16 points and Dustin Hogue had 12 for the Cyclones, who won their second straight after a humbling loss at Texas Tech a week ago. TCU (14-7, 1-7) stayed close for a half, causing some edginess among the Cyclone faithful, but Iowa State finally took control with a pair of big runs in the second half.

Trey Zeigler led TCU with 14 points and Chris Washburn scored 11.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Frank Kaminsky had 24 points and nine rebounds to lead No. 5 Wisconsin to a 74-63 win over Iowa on Saturday. Nigel Hayes scored 14 points and Sam Dekker and Josh Gasser each added 11 for the Badgers (18-2, 6-1 Big Ten). Wisconsin had 21 second chance points to win its fifth straight against the Hawkeyes (13-8, 4-4).

Aaron White scored 15 points to lead Iowa, which has dropped three straight games. White was limited in practice this week after injuring his shoulder last week against Purdue. Wisconsin pulled away midway through the second half when Iowa went nearly seven minutes without a field goal. Gabriel Olaseni added 12 points for Iowa.

No. 12 Wichita St, No. 18 Northern Iowa set for MVC showdown

Sports

January 31st, 2015 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Wichita State’s unbeaten romp through the Missouri Valley Conference has brought both notoriety and scrutiny to the league. Northern Iowa is getting its chance to show that the Valley is about more than just the Shockers.

The 18th-ranked Panthers (19-2, 8-1 MVC) host Number 12 Wichita State (19-2, 9-0) on Saturday in one of the most high-profile games in league history. It’s the first Valley game between ranked opponents since 1982 — and biggest threat yet to Wichita’s 27-game winning streak in the league.

EVANSTON, Ill. (AP) — Melissa Dixon scored 29 points, including 9 of 10 3-pointers, as No. 20 Iowa set a Big 10 record with 19 3-pointers in a 102-99 win over Northwestern on Thursday. The Hawkeyes (17-3, 8-1) won their sixth straight by shooting 57 percent, including a blistering 68 percent (19-28) from 3-point range and 17 of 20 from the foul line.

The Wildcats (14-6, 4-5) trailed 58-41 at the half but went 9 of 12 from 3-point range to get back into the game. They finished 13 of 18 behind the arc with the combined 32 treys setting a NCAA record by one.

Ally Disterhoft, who finished with 22 points, gave Iowa a 100-94 lead with a pair of free throws with 23 seconds left. Ashley Deary, who had a career-high 22 points, scored for the Wildcats with 19 seconds left but Dixon, who was 10 of 12 from the field, answered with a layup at 14 seconds. Nia Coffey, who finished with a career-high 35 points, hit a 3 with three seconds left for Northwestern.

Bethany Doolittle had 26 points for Iowa and Whitney Jennings added 16. Dixon had 21 points in the first half as Iowa shot 64 percent, including 14 of 19 3s, to lead by 17.

D-League suspends Iowa teammates Stokes, Lucas over fight

Sports

January 30th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

NEW YORK (AP) — The NBA Development League has suspended Iowa Energy forward Jarnell Stokes for three games and teammate Kalin Lucas for two games for fighting on the bench. The league announced the suspensions Thursday. The 6-foot-9 Stokes and 6-1 Lucas were ejected for fighting with 2:29 left in the third quarter of Iowa’s 124-120 win over Rio Grande on Tuesday night. A broadcast of the game showed pushing and shoving near the bench for Iowa, an affiliate of the Memphis Grizzlies, during a timeout.

Lucas, a former star at Michigan State, played one game this season for the Grizzlies. Stokes, a rookie out of Tennessee, has split time between Iowa and Memphis. The suspensions were to start Thursday night against Fort Wayne.
