(Iowa City) The Iowa women’s basketball team (3-0 overall) sprinted to an 11-0 lead, outscored Arkansas-Pine Bluff 20-0 in fast break points, and cruised to a 76-38 win Wednesday night, at Carver Hawkeye Arena. The Golden Lions dipped to 1-2 on the season. It is the fewest points allowed by an Iowa women’s basketball team since it defeated Michigan 53-36 on Dec. 30, 1994.
Three Hawkeyes scored in double figures with juniors Bethany Doolittle and Melissa Dixon sharing game-high honors with 17. Freshman Ally Disterhoft played 23 minutes and scored 12 points with nine rebounds and four assists.
The Hawkeyes host Stony Brook on Sunday, Nov. 17, with tip-off at 1 p.m. (CT). They will then play five games away from home before returning Dec. 5 to play Syracuse.
AMES, Iowa (AP) — Hallie Christofferson hit her second double-double of the season, scoring 25 points and nabbing 12 rebounds to lead Iowa State to an 88-72 victory over South Dakota on Wednesday night. Christofferson sank 7 of 21 from the floor and was perfect from the foul line, hitting 10 of 10. She also had two assists for the Cyclones (2-0). Guard Nicky Moody scored 20 points with four rebounds, seven assists and two steals. Brynn Williamson hit 6 of 9 from the floor and 3 of 9 from the 3-point line for a total of 18 points.
The Cyclones overcame South Dakota on a 21-3 run with eight minutes left the second half to seal the victory. The high scorer for the Coyotes (1-2) was Nicole Seekamp with 21 points and a team-high seven assists. Raeshel Contreras came off the bench to score 15 points for South Dakota.
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa has signed prep guard Brady Ellingson and forward Dominique Uhl to national letters of intent. Ellingson, a 6-foot-4 guard from Sussex, Wis., averaged 21.3 points a game as a junior last season. He shot 48 percent from 3-point range and was named first-team All-State.
Uhl, a 6-foot-9 forward from Point Pleasant Beach High in N.J., averaged 10 points and 10 rebounds a game last year. Iowa coach Fran McCaffery says Ellingson is a “cerebral” player and that Uhl has tremendous ball-handling skills for a player his size.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Drake coach Ray Giacoletti announced his first recruiting class Wednesday, a five-player group that includes a pair of Iowans. Iowa Falls Alden High forward Casey Schlatter and center Kory Kuenstling of Dunkerton headline the class of players who have signed with the Bulldogs.
Schlatter averaged 25.7 points and 10.1 rebounds per game as a junior last season and was a first-team All-State pick. The 6-foot-11 Kuenstling scored nearly 16 points a game last year. Point guard Reed Timmer of New Berlin, Wis., and a pair of Illinois players, C.J. Rivers and Ore Arogundade, round out the 2013 class for Drake.
Giacoletti says each of his new players comes from a successful high school or AAU program and excels in the classroom.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – A person familiar with the situation tells The Associated Press that Chiefs wide receiver Dwayne Bowe will play Sunday night against Denver after his arrest for speeding and possession of marijuana over the weekend. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity Wednesday because he was not authorized to discuss the situation. Chiefs coach Andy Reid is expected to address Bowe’s status for the key AFC West showdown after the team’s morning walk-through.
Bowe was pulled over for speeding Sunday in the Kansas City suburb of Riverside. Police said an officer smelled “a strong odor of marijuana from inside of the vehicle.” He was cited for speeding and possession of a controlled substance, police said. Bowe posted $750 bond and faces a Dec. 18 court appearance.

Dustin Hogue and Matt Thomas each had 13 for the Cyclones (2-0), who overcame a somewhat sluggish start with an 18-2 run to start the second half.
Georges Niang, who added 12 points and five assists, put the Cyclones ahead by 20 with a jumper. Thomas’s layup with 14:44 left made it 50-28 Iowa State. Monte Morris converted a four-point play with 8:20 left to give the Cyclones a 30-point lead. Morris finished with 11 points for Iowa State, which faces its first major test of the season at home against No. 7 Michigan on Sunday.
Jeff Beverly had 14 points for the Islanders (1-1).
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Blake Danielak, in just his second college basketball game, scored 18 points to pace Drake in a 104-49 win over Iowa Wesleyan on Tuesday night. The Bulldogs (2-0) used a 16-2 run midway through the first half to open up a 31-9 lead and never looked back. They took a 53-22 advantage into halftime.
Danielak shot 7 of 10 from the field, including 4 of 7 from behind the 3-point line. He added six rebounds and four assists in just 20 minutes of action. Drake made 39 of 61 (63.9 percent) field goals and dished out 25 assists as a team. The Bulldogs committed just five turnovers and outscored the Tigers 30-6 in the paint.
Dion Lightner was the lone Iowa Wesleyan player in double figures, finishing with 10 points. The game served as an exhibition for the Tigers, who will open their regular season on Saturday night.
