New Brunswick, NJ – The fourth-ranked Iowa women’s basketball team defeated Rutgers, 103-69, on Friday night inside Jersey Mike’s Arena. It was the first sellout for Rutgers women’s basketball since 2006. Iowa improved to 15-1 on the season and 4-0 in Big Ten play.

All-American Caitlin Clark recorded her third triple-double this season leading scoring with 29 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists. It was her 14th career triple-double.

Five Hawkeyes recorded double digit points. Kate Martin registered double digits in the first half finishing with 17 points, seven rebounds, and five assists. Gabbie Marshall finished with 12 points, and Sydney Affolter and Hannah Stuelke each scored 10 points apiece.

Clark recorded nine points and Davis went 2-for-2 from three in the first quarter to aid the Hawkeyes in the early lead. Iowa outrebounded the Scarlet Knights, 31-13, in the first half to head into halftime with a 55-30, advantage.

It was more of the same in the second half as Iowa outscored Rutgers, 26-16, in the third quarter, shooting 62.5% from the field. Iowa closed out the game going on a 7-0 run midst of the fourth quarter.

It was Iowa’s fifth 100-point outing and 11th 20+ point victory of the season. It is also the first time in the Lisa Bluder era the Hawkeyes have started 15-1.

QUOTING P. SUE BECKWITH, MD, HEAD COACH LISA BLUDER
“First off, we want to recognize the people in Perry, Iowa that are struggling in their community. We’ve been thinking about them a lot and sending prayers their way. I’m really glad Iowa could be here on the night that they are recognizing —. I thought we played very well in tonight’s game. I thought we were in control mentally and physically the whole night.”

UP NEXT
The fourth-ranked Hawkeyes will hit the road to face Purdue on Jan. 10. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. (CT) inside Mackey Arena. The game will broadcast on Peacock (subscription required) and the Hawkeye Radio Network.

The Atlantic basketball team started off the game with a 5-2 lead against Kuemper Catholic but couldn’t get the key basket needed to contain the Knights. Kuemper Catholic came away with a 74-52 win and improved to 9-1 on the season.

It was a very close game throughout the first quarter with both offenses struggling mightily against zone defenses from both squads. The Knights hit a couple shots in the last minute of the first quarter and started to find a rhythm leading into the second to lead 42-25 at the break. The Trojans then opened the second half on a 8-2 run but Kuemper Catholic quickly responded with multiple fast break baskets to cushion the lead back to double digits.  The Knights led by 14 at the end of the third and hung on with a lead near that mark the rest of the way.

Atlantic Head Coach Dalton Franken was pride of the fight his team showed starting the second half on a run but said that rebounds are still an issue for Atlantic.

Michale Kasperbauer led the Knights with 14 points, Carter Putney had 13, and Carson Kanne added 12. Kuemper Catholic will travel to East Sac County on Saturday.

Atlantic got 26 points from Colton Rasmussen and 13 from Nolan Waters. One highlight from Friday’s loss was Colton Rasmussen scoring his 1000th point as an Atlantic Trojan, Coach Franken said it was a moment well deserved.

The Trojans fall to 3-10 on the season and will head to Clarinda on Tuesday.

The Atlantic girls basketball team clamped down defensively against Kuemper Catholic in the second quarter and turned a 5-point lead after the first into a 9-point lead by half. The Trojans then battled away to a 55-44 victory on Friday night at Kuemper Catholic High School. The win brought relief and a boost of confidence for Head Coach Dan Vargason and his squad.

Paytn Harter had a solid night with 18 points and was a big part of the defensive pressure that flustered the Knights. Maddie Richter was also great defensively and finished with 13 points and 4 triples in the second half. A focus for the Trojans was holding onto the lead and keeping composure in high pressure situations. Atlantic had lost three previous games including against Kuemper Catholic while leading to start the fourth quarter. Coach Vargason said a major takeaway from the game is that the girls learned what they’re capable of when they stay in the moment and play together.

Atlantic improved to 4-9 on the season with the win and will now prep for a trip to Clarinda on Tuesday night.

Kuemper Catholic was led by 15 points from Elsa Tiefenthaler and the Knights fell to 3-7 on the season.
