IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Nebraska senior guard Brandon Richardson insists he’s much happier with assists than buckets. When the Huskers needed Richardson to be more selfish, he responded with the best offensive game of his career. Richardson scored a season-high 25 points on 6 of 7 shooting from 3-point range and Nebraska rallied to beat Iowa 79-73 Thursday night for the program’s first Big Ten road win. Bo Spencer added 16 for the Huskers (11-9, 3-6 Big Ten), who bounced back from an ugly loss to Ohio State with their third win in five games. Nebraska used a late 14-4 run to take a 70-65 lead with just under three minutes left. Three-pointers from Matt Gatens and Eric May brought the Hawkeyes within two, but Toney McCray hit two free throws with 27 seconds left and Iowa couldn’t answer against Nebraska’s defense, which made a late but effective switch to zone. The Hawkeyes allowed Nebraska to score 48 points in the second half, an ugly number given that the Huskers entered play averaging just 60.7 points a night. Zach McCabe matched a career high with 20 points for the Hawkeyes (11-10, 3-5), who led by as much as 11 in the first half. It was the first meeting in 36 years between the border-state schools, who will now see each other at least once a season. Iowa will always remember the reunion as the one it let get away.
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska had another bad shooting night — and another good outcome. Jordan Hooper recorded her Big Ten-leading ninth double-double with 22 points and 15 rebounds, and the No. 19 Cornhuskers held off Iowa’s late comeback attempt for a 60-53 victory Thursday night. The Huskers posted season lows with their 32.1-percent shooting overall and 20-percent efficiency from 3-point range. But Iowa was even worse — 31 percent overall, 29 percent on 3s — and the Huskers had Hooper playing at her best. The Huskers have managed to win seven times this season when shooting under 40 percent. Lindsey Moore added 15 points for the Huskers (17-3, 6-2), who remain two games behind first-place Purdue in the conference race and one game back of Ohio State.Jaime Printy had 17 points, Kamille Wahlin 11 and Samantha Logic 10 for the Hawkeyes (11-10, 3-5). The Hawkeyes shot just 21 percent and committed 13 of their 20 turnovers in the first half. The Huskers struggled against Iowa’s zone defense in the second half, missing 10 shots in a row and turning the ball over five times during their 11-minute field-goal drought.

Dropped Out: Cedar Falls (13), Waterloo West (14)
The Iowa Hawkeyes return from lengthy layoff tonight (Thursday), when they host Nebraska. The Hawks are 3-4 in the Big Ten and have not played since a January 17th loss at Purdue. Iowa coach Fran McCaffery says the Huskers are much better than their 2-6 league record. McCaffery says the Huskers are healthier right now and playing better. Iowa is 11-9 overall. Pre-game coverage begins at 5, with the tip-off at 6-p.m. here on KJAN.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (AP) — Carl Richard scored 17 points to lead Indiana State to a 59-54 victory against Northern Iowa on Wednesday night. Richard was the only player in double figures for the Sycamores (12-9, 3-7 Missouri Valley), who never trailed and held the Panthers (14-8, 4-6) to 36 percent shooting from the floor. Seth Tuttle scored 22 points and Johnny Moran added 11 for Northern Iowa. Marc Sonnen, who entered Monday with a 10.1 scoring average, was held to four points but made a 3-pointer for a 16th straight game. Sonnen had a putback that would have cut the Indiana State lead to 56-54 with 1:21 remaining, but it was waived off due to a foul. Jake Odum increased the Sycamores’ cushion to six points with a jumper.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Drake got big nights from its two stars, Rayvonte Rice and Ben Simons, and put a significant scare into No. 15 Creighton. Doug McDermott and the Bluejays were just too much for the Bulldogs to handle, keeping Drake from moving closer to the Missouri Valley’s elite. McDermott scored 30 points and No. 15 Creighton held off Drake 77-69 on Wednesday night for its sixth straight road win. Jahenns Manigat added 15 for the Bluejays (19-2, 9-1 MVC), who have the program’s longest road winning streak in 37 years. Creighton let a 15-point lead dwindle to two early in the second half against the Bulldogs. But McDermott helped keep the Bulldogs from getting any closer, scoring 10 straight points late in the half. Rice had 23 points and 11 rebounds to lead Drake (12-9, 5-5), getting his seventh 20-point game of the season. Ben Simons added 18 and Kurt Alexander added 16 points off the bench. Creighton never trailed in the second half in winning its ninth straight overall.
