CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (AP) — Jeremy Morgan had a career-high 21 points, eight rebounds and five assists and Northern Iowa beat Missouri State 83-69 on Wednesday night for a fifth straight win. Matt Bohannon and Bennett Koch scored 19 apiece and Wes Washpun had 11 points with nine assists for the Panthers (15-11, 7-6 Missouri Valley Conference). Northern Iowa never trailed, made 19 of 21 free throws and hit 10 of 23 from beyond the arc.
Trailing 49-38 at halftime, the Bears’ Ryan Kreklow and Loomis Gerring combined to score nine unanswered points and Missouri State closed to within 61-58. The Panthers replied with 17-2 run and led 78-60 with 4:36 left after Koch’s back-to-back dunks and the Bears trailed by double digits the rest of the way.
Chris Kendrix scored 20 with a career-high five 3-pointers for Missouri State (10-15, 6-7). Dequon Miller had a career-high seven assists.
AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State wide receiver D’Vario Montgomery and running back Joshua Thomas won’t return to the team for next season.
The Cyclones say Montgomery has been dismissed for violating team rules. Thomas intends to transfer to another school.
Montgomery was fourth on the team with 27 receptions for 335 yards and three touchdowns last season.
Thomas ran for 295 yards as a freshman. But the rise of Mike Warren, who led all freshmen nationally with 1,339 yards in 2015, likely played a role in Thomas’s decision to leave.
After the completion of Regional Team Dual competition on Tuesday for Class 1A and 2A wrestling squads, the State Dual Team pairings were released.
The AP released their latest boys basketball rankings late Monday, February 8th.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Ron Baker and Shaq Morris had 11 points each and No. 25 Wichita State pounded Drake 74-48 on Tuesday night for its 12th win in 13 games. Thirteen players scored for the Shockers (18-5, 12-1 Missouri Valley Conference), who moved within two victories of clinching at least a share of its third straight league title.
Wichita State had little trouble with the Valley’s worst team, rattling off a 27-5 run to close the first half in beating the Bulldogs for the ninth straight time. Reed Timmer scored 20 points for Drake (6-19, 1-12), which lost for the 15th time in 17 games.

Iowa State basketball coach Steve Prohm says senior center Jameel McKay remains suspended indefinitely and will not play on Wednesday night when the Cyclones visit Texas Tech. The former Indian Hills standout did not travel with the Cyclones to Saturday’s 64-59 win at Oklahoma State. Prohm says he met with McKay Monday morning to discuss the situation.
The Coach says while McKay will not play on Wednesday he is returning to practice. Prohm says if all goes well McKay could return for Saturday night’s game at home against Texas.
