Tenth ranked Kansas connected on 56 percent for the game to beat 20th ranked Iowa State 70-61 in Ames. The Jayhawks won without Big 12 leading scorer Ochai (oh-cheye) Agbaji (uh-bah-G), who was sidelined due to COVID protocols. ISU coach T.J. Otzelberger says a slow start defensively was costly.

Otzelberger says the Cyclones struggled guard the dribble.

The Cyclones are 3-6 in the Big-12 and head to Texas on Saturday looking for a season sweep of the Longhorns.

Isaiah Brockington led Iowa State with 24.

The 11th ranked Iowa State women take a share of the Big 12 lead into tonight’s (Wed. night’s) game at home against 25th ranked Kansas State. The Cyclones are 7-2 as the second half of the conference race begins.

That’s ISU coach Bill Fennelly. The Cyclones rallied late to win the first meeting 73-70 in Manhattan.

Kansas State standout center Ayoka Lee scored 38 points in the first meeting with the Cyclones.

K-State is fourth in the Big 12 with a record of 6-3.

Northern Iowa will try to cool off Bradley when the teams collide Wednesday night in the McLeod Center. The Braves edged the Panthers in Peoria back in early December.

That’s UNI coach Ben Jacobson who says Bradley forward Rienk (rink) Mast is one of the most improved players in the Valley. The sophomore has averaged nearly 19 points and 10 rebounds in the last two games.

Bradley coach Brian Wardle says the Braves will need a big effort to extend their four game winning streak.

Drake takes a share of the Missouri Valley Conference lead on the road tonight (Wednesday night), to play Indiana State. The Bulldogs are 7-2 in the Valley while the Sycamores are 2-6.

That’s Drake coach Darian DeVries who says the Bulldogs will be challenged defensively.

Indians State coach Josh Schertz has been impressed with Drake’s toughness.
