West Sioux 39, Missouri Valley 39 (West Sioux wins on criteria)
Iowa State snapped a four game skid. Izaiah Brockington scored 20 points and Tyrese Hunter added 15 as the Cyclones ground out a 54-51 win at TCU. ISU won despite shooting only 39 percent.
Iowa State coach T. J. Otzelberger. The Cyclones improve to 5-9 in the Big 12.
Iowa looks to maintain its momentum on offense when the Hawkeyes host Michigan on Thursday night. After scoring 110 points in a win at Maryland the Hawkeyes put up 98 against Nebraska.
That’s Iowa coach Fran McCaffery. Sophomore forward Keegan Murray scored 67 points in the last two games and was named National Player of the Week.
The Hawkeyes are above 500 in the Big Ten for the first time this season and Thursday’s game begins a crucial three game stretch in five days.
The sixth ranked Iowa State women take the Big 12 lead on the road to 15th ranked Texas tonight (Wednesday night). It begins a big week for the Cyclones that finds them hosting second place Oklahoma this weekend.
That’s ISU coach Bill Fennelly. The Longhorns beat the Cyclones 66-48 in Ames last month and neither Ashley or Aubrey Joens played in that game.
Fennelly feels better about playing Texas at full strength.
Iowa State is 10-2 in the Big 12.
Drake coach Darian DeVries says the Bulldogs need to eliminate mistakes at crunch time. The Bulldogs host Evansville tonight (Wednesday night) and a three game losing streak has dropped them from the top spot in the Missouri Valley race all the way to fifth.
DeVries says mistakes are magnified in a season like this when there are so many close games.
With a short bench and two key starters playing through injuries DeVries says rest is important during the final couple of weeks of the season.

Meredith Rich hits the go-ahead three
The CAM Cougars rallied from a five point deficit to start the fourth quarter and took a 54-45 win over St. Albert in a Class 1A Region 8 Quarterfinal game on Tuesday night in Anita.
It was a great back and forth battle. Ella Klusman buried a three at the end of the third to fire up the Saintes. CAM responded as Reese Snyder opened the fourth with a three and CAM went on an 11-2 run to grab the edge. CAM Head Coach Joe Wollum talked about handling the momentum swings.
In the midst of that run Meredith Rich hit a huge corner three to put CAM back on top 44-42. She talked about the excitement of the moment.
Rich said they just wanted to stay with the plan heading to the fourth.
Eva Steffensen had a huge game with 21 points and came up with a number of key deflections and steals. Coach Wollum said it’s great to have her versatility out there.
CAM improved to 19-4 on the season and earned a rematch of a regular season loss at Stanton on Friday in the Regional Semifinals. Coach Wollum said they are ready for the challenge.
St. Albert was led by 13 points from Klusman and 10 from Missy Evezic. The Saintes end their season with a record of 14-8.
