Iowa women down Minnesota

Sports

January 9th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

The Iowa Hawkeye women picked up their first Big Ten victory with a 78-71 win over Minnesota in Iowa City, Wednesday night. Iowa coach Lisa Bluder said “It’s a little late coming, but we’re really glad to get this win. Obviously the ‘Border War’ with Minnesota is big. Minnesota is a very good team,” but Bluder said after an 0-2 start, the win was important for the Lady Hawks, as they prepare to take on the Wisconsin on the road, this weekend.

Iowa trailed 35-32 at the half but the Hawks did a better job against Minnesota’s perimeter shooters in the second half. Iowa is now 12-4 overall.

January 9th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

EVANSVILLE, Ind. (AP) — Matt Bohannon scored 17 points with 5-of-9 shooting from 3-point range on Wednesday night as Northern Iowa earned its first road win of the season 80-53 over Evansville. UNI shot 14 of 30 from 3-point range and capitalized on Evansville’s 11 first-half turnovers. The Panthers opened on a 15-4 run, led by as much as 22 in the first half and held a 43-24 advantage at break.

Bohannon made all five of his 3-pointers in the second half. His fourth 3-pointer with 9:55 to play put UNI up 67-33. Seth Tuttle had 14 points and seven rebounds for the UNI (8-7, 2-1 Missouri Valley) and Wes Washpun scored 12.

Blake Simmons finished with 16 points, the only double-digit scorer for Evansville (7-9, 0-3). D.J. Balentine entered the game averaging 22.7 points per game for the Aces, but finished with only eight points — his first single-digit game of the year.

The Cyclones (14-0, 3-0) only missed one of their 17 free throws.

Texas Tech (6-8, 0-3) was held to just 16 first-half points. The Raiders scored twice as many points after the break (32), but could not overcome the 21-point first half deficit. Marina Lizarazu led Texas Tech with 10 points and was the only Lady Raider to score in double digits. Texas Tech combined for just six assists and shot 1 of 10 from 3-point range.
