Doug McDermott scored 20 points to help No. 23 Creighton escape Illinois State with an 87-78 win Friday night.
The Bluejays were clinging to a three-point lead with 24 seconds left when Illinois State freshman Johnny Hill committed a hard foul and was given two technicals. Fans then littered the court with debris, causing a third tech to be called on the Redbirds (11-6, 3-3 Missouri Valley Conference).
Hill made two big 3-pointers in the final five minutes. His second one cut Creighton’s lead to 77-75 with 59.8 seconds left.
Ethan Wragge made two 3-pointers shortly after halftime to help the Bluejays (15-2, 5-1) get out to a 64-46 lead.

CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (AP) — Chip Rank hit the game-winning layup with 2 seconds left as Northern Iowa edged Missouri State 61-60 on Friday night. Anthony James had team-leading totals of 23 points and eight rebounds for the Panthers (13-5, 3-3 Missouri Valley). Caleb Patterson scored 24 points and Kyle Weems hit double figures for the 17th consecutive game with 16 points for the Bears (11-7, 4-2). On the final play, Rank took a pass from Jake Koch in the lane and went up to score through a maze of bodies. Missouri State’s Michael Bizoukas threw up an 80-footer at the buzzer as his coach, Paul Lusk, screamed for a timeout. The officials huddled after the buzzer, but no timeout was granted. Neither team ever led by more than six points. The score was tied nine times, and the lead changed hands 19 times. Neither team scored a single point off a fast break.
EVANSVILLE, Ind. (AP) — Ben Simons scored 17 points and Drake shot 61.4 percent to beat Evansville 69-60 on Friday night. Aaron Hawley had 11 points for the Bulldogs (10-7, 3-3 Missouri Valley), who won their second in a row and notched their first road victory of the season. Ryan Sawvell scored 14 points to pace the Purple Aces (7-9, 2-4), whose losing streak stretched to four. Denver Holmes added 12 points and Ned Cox 10. The Bulldogs, who made 27 of 44 shots, started the game with a 6-0 run and expanded the lead to 30-13 with 8:47 left in the first half after back-to-back baskets by Kraidon Woods. Evansville scored the last eight points of the first half and trailed 39-32 at the break but never took the lead. The Purple Aces were outrebounded 38-21 but committed only 10 turnovers while forcing 22.
The Gatorade Company, in collaboration with ESPN HS has announced that Rebekah Topham of Griswold High School has been named the 2011-12 Gatorade Iowa Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year. Topham is the first from Griswold to win the honor. The award recognizes not only outstanding athletic excellence, but also high academic achievement and character. The 5-foot-7 freshman won the Class 1-A State Individual Championship last cross country season with a time of 13:59 on the four kilometer course, :32 faster than her nearest competitor. It was the fastet time ever by a freshman at state. Topham has never lost an in-state race and placed eighth at the 2011 Nike Cross Country Nationals Heartland Regional Championship with a time of 18:30.2. Topham is home-schooled and carries a 3.26 grade point average and finds time to volunteer for a number of community services projects through her church youth group. Topham is now a finalist for the Gatorade National Cross Country Runner of the Year award.
