Purdue held off a late Iowa rally and defeated Iowa 77-70 in men’s hoops on Friday night in West Lafayette. Trevion Williams had 13 points and 18 rebounds, including two important late boards to lead Purdue. Jaden Ivey added 19 for the Boilermakers who will be the likely No. 1 ranked team in the country next week.

The Hawkeyes were led by 15 points from Patrick McCaffery, 14 from Tony Perkins, and 12 from Kris Murray. Iowa played without top scorer and rebounder Keegan Murray who was injured in Monday’s win at Virginia.

Purdue built a big lead early in the game but let a 63-44 margin dwindle to 70-68 with 3:08 left in the game. The Boilermakers then outscored Iowa 7-2 to seal the win down the stretch. Iowa forced 17 turnovers using a full court press to get back in the game.

The Hawkeyes suffer their first loss and are now 7-1. Next up for Iowa is a Monday night home game against Illinois. Our coverage of that one on KJAN will start at 5:00 p.m.

(Radio Iowa) The 13th ranked Iowa Hawkeyes bid for the upset Saturday night when they play second ranked Michigan in the Big Ten Championship in Lucas Oil Stadium. The Hawkeyes are 10-2.

That’s Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz who says the Hawkeyes need to play a complete game.

It is the Hawkeyes first trip to the championship since a 2015 heartbreaking loss to Michigan State.

Ferentz is proud of his team to get the chance to play for the title.

We’ll have coverage from the Hawkeye Radio Network on KJAN. Pregame at 5:00 p.m. and kickoff at 7:00 p.m.

MINNEAPOLIS – Iowa State (16-12, 8-8 Big 12) saw its 2021 volleyball season come to an end on Friday evening, falling 3-1 (25-19, 23-25, 25-18, 25-17) to No. 18 Stanford (19-10, 13-7 Pac-12) in the First Round of the 2021 NCAA Volleyball Championship.

In defeat, ISU was led by a pair of its stars, with Eleanor Holthaus notching a double-double of 15 kills and 12 digs, while Candelaria Herrera had 12 kills at .391 hitting, along with a team-high five blocks. Marija Popovic had 11 digs.

Due to unforeseen circumstances we will not be able to bring you the Atlantic at Glenwood basketball doubleheader on KJANTV as we intended. I apologize for the late notice and am sorry for the inconvenience and we look forward to bringing you great coverage of area teams throughout the season on air and through the KJAN Video Network. There will be multiple games available tonight on KJAN Video Network channels.

The Atlantic boys basketball team opens the new season under a new head coach and a number of new faces on the court. Derek Hall takes over the reigns from Jeff Ebling who moved on to coach at Indianola. Hall has been with the program for several years as an assistant and now moves to the head coaching role. Coach Hall said his familiarity with the team has helped the transition.

Some key seniors will need to be replaced from last year. Skyler Handlos averaged 16.7 points per game and Grant Sturm and Ethan Williams each averaged 8 per contest. Dayton Templeton will be one of the returners leaned on this season. He’s coming off a 10 point per game average as a junior and he said he’s ready for the challenge and the team has been coming together well.

Ethan Sturm is another senior that will look to help lead the team. Ethan struggled through some injuries last year but had some big shots for the Trojans. He is looking forward to getting out there.

Caden Andersen and Colton Rasmussen are a couple of guys that will have elevated roles this year. Coach Hall said it’s just a group that loves to play.

The Trojans open the season tonight on the road against Hawkeye Ten foe Glenwood.

Drake won their Missouri Valley Conference opener over Valporaiso 73-66 on Thursday night. Darnell Brodie had 14 points and six rebounds, DJ Wilkins and Tucker DeVries added 11 points apiece. Tremell Murphy added 10 for the Bulldogs.

Drake improved to 4-3 on the season. Next up for the Bulldogs is a home tilt against St. Thomas on Sunday at 2:00 p.m.
