The 25th ranked Iowa women outscored Illinois 19-5 in the opening quarter and raced away to an 82-56 win. Monica Czinano scored 21 points as the Hawkeyes improve to 6-1 in the Big Ten.

That’s Iowa coach Lisa Bluder who says the lopsided scored allowed her to limit the minutes for her starters as the Hawkeyes visit Penn State Tuesday night.
