AMES, Iowa (AP) — Point guard Tyrese Haliburton stuffed the box score in a spectacular opener for Iowa State. It likely won’t be the last time the Cyclones’ sophomore dominates multiple aspects of a game in 2019-20. Senior Michael Jacobson led seven Cyclones in double figures with 20 points and nine rebounds and Iowa State throttled Mississippi Valley State 110-74 in its season opener on Tuesday. But Haliburton stole the show with 12 points, 14 assists, seven rebounds and six steals for the Cyclones. Led by Haliburton’s elite distribution, Iowa State had 32 assists, three shy of the school record, on 45 made baskets.
