LAS VEGAS (AP) — Hallie Christofferson and Seanna Johnson scored 20 points each as No. 23 Iowa State easily defeated Eastern Washington 88-60 in the South Point Shoot Out Friday night. This was the nineteenth career 20-point game for Christofferson, who also had 6 rebounds. It was also her sixty-third game in double figures.

Iowa State (5-0) had no trouble with Eastern Washington (0-4) as the Eagles never led while the Cyclones led by as much as 35 with 9:38 remaining in the second period. The Cyclones hit 17 of 32 shots from the floor in the first half as they jumped out to a 50-27 halftime lead. They finished by hitting 48.3 percent for the game. Iowa State was 12-of-29 shooting 3-point shots. The Cyclones outrebounded the Eagles 42 to 23.

Lexie Nelson led Eastern Washington with 18 points. Melissa Williams added 10.

PARADISE ISLAND, Bahamas (AP) — Aaron White scored 17 points, Zach McCabe added 14 and No. 23 Iowa rolled into the championship game of the Battle 4 Atlantis, easily beating Texas-El Paso 89-53 on Friday night. Peter Jok scored 14 and Melsahn Basabe finished with 10 for the Hawkeyes (7-0), who have already won five times this season by at least 31 points. Iowa will meet Villanova for the tournament title on later today (Saturday).

After needing overtime to beat Xavier in the quarterfinals, Iowa took care of this one early. A 13-0 run in the opening minutes put the Hawkeyes in control, and Iowa’s first 20-point lead came a mere 14 minutes into the contest. Julian Washburn scored 13 for UTEP (4-3), which will play in the third-place game Saturday. No other Miner finished with more than seven.

Unranked Villanova advanced to the Battle 4 Atlantis title game by stunning No. 2 Kansas. The Villanova Wildcats closed on a 5-0 run as Ryan Arcidiacono hit a go-ahead, 3-pointer with 10.1 seconds left to help Villanova beat the Jayhawks 63-59. It was his only basket of the game, and the Wildcats’ lone field goal in the final seven minutes. Darrun Hilliard and Dylan Ennis each scored 14 for Villanova.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – Chiefs linebacker Tamba Hali pronounced himself close to 100 percent for Sunday’s game against Denver, while fellow pass rusher Justin Houston is week to week with an elbow injury.  Hali went through practice Friday without feeling pain from a sprained right ankle sustained in last Sunday’s loss to San Diego. He initially thought that the injury was much more serious, but he received treatment early in the week and will play against the Broncos.

Houston dislocated his right elbow against the Chargers and it’s unclear when he’ll return. The Chiefs’ top pass rusher couldn’t have an MRI exam until Wednesday because of swelling, and trainer Rick Burkholder said Friday the elbow was still in a brace.  Chiefs coach Andy Reid does not believe the injury is season-ending.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) – Jake Rudock threw for two touchdowns, including a 24-yarder to Kevonte Martin-Manley right after Iowa had stuffed Nebraska on a fake punt, and the Hawkeyes finished the regular season with a 38-17 victory on Friday.  The Hawkeyes converted two of Nebraska’s three turnovers into touchdowns and got a short field for a third TD after the failed fake punt. Seven of Iowa’s 15 possessions started in Cornhuskers’ territory.

Iowa (8-4, 5-3 Big Ten) doubled its win total from a year ago and won a fourth road game for the first time since 2009. Mark Weisman ran 24 times for 72 yards and two touchdowns. Rudock left late in the third quarter with an undisclosed injury.

The Huskers (8-4, 5-3) had their lowest regular-season win total since 2008, coach Bo Pelini’s first year, and lost three games at home for the first time since 2007 under Bill Callahan.
