The 24th ranked Iowa Hawkeyes built 19 point halftime lead and beat Northwestern 82-61. It was the Hawks seventh win in their last eight games as they improve to 11-7 in the Big Ten. The Hawks finish the month of February 7-1.

That’s Iowa coach Fran McCaffery who talks about a key to the late season surge.

Keegan Murray scored 26 points and grabbed 18 rebounds and Jordan Bohannon celebrated senior night by scoring 18 points.

Bohannon says it was an emotional evening.

Iowa visits Michigan Thursday night. We’ll have that game on KJAN with pregame at 7:00 p.m.
