IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) – Dom Uhl notched his first career double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds and Iowa trounced Missouri-Kansas City 95-75 on Saturday for its third straight win.

Nicholas Baer also had 14 for the Hawkeyes (6-2), who had five players score at least 10 points for the second game in a row.

Despite a sluggish start, Iowa had more than enough to overwhelm the Kangaroos. The Hawkeyes jumped ahead by 14 at halftime, and Brady Ellingson’s 3 gave Iowa a 76-55 lead with just over 8 minutes left.

Martez Harrison had 15 points for UMKC (5-3). The Kangaroos had just 12 assists on 29 made baskets.
