No. 25 Iowa women no match for Nebraska

Sports

January 29th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

A big crowd at Carver-Hawkeye Arena never even had a chance to get into the game, Sunday. Nebraska shot a blistering 62 percent in the second quarter to blow the game open in a 92-74 win over 25th ranked Iowa. The Hawkeyes trailed by thirty points at halftime and it left coach Lisa Bluder looking for answers. The Hawkeyes shot only 41 percent, including one of 12 from three point range, and were outrebounded 44-33.

Megan Gustafson had 26 points and 10 rebounds and Kathleen Doyle had 16 points. They were the only Hawkeyes in double figures. Iowa falls to 4-5 in the Big Ten and 16-6 overall. It was Nebraska’s ninth straight road win and the Huskers improve to 7-2 in the Big Ten.

MVC leader Loyola-Chicago wins 7th straight, tops UNI 70-47

Sports

January 28th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

CHICAGO (AP) — Clayton Custer scored a season-high 21 points on 9-of-12 shooting and Missouri Valley Conference leader Loyola-Chicago beat Northern Iowa 70-47 on Sunday for its seventh straight victory.

Loyola (18-4, 8-2) hasn’t won seven straight league games since a 12-game streak during the 1984-85 season. The Ramblers are 16-1 with Custer in the lineup — including a 65-59 victory over then-No. 5 Florida in December. He missed five straight games after sustaining an ankle injury against the Gators.

Donte Ingram had 16 points and eight rebounds, Cameron Krutwig added 14 points and eight boards for Loyola. Loyola leads conference foes Bradley, Southern Illinois and Drake — all at 6-4 — with eight games to play.

Klint Carlson and Tywhon Pickford each scored 14 for Northern Iowa (11-11, 3-7). The Panthers shot 36.5 percent, including 4 of 21 from distance.

ISU’s Lanning was a finalist for Lombardi Award

Sports

January 28th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

Stanford running back Bryce Love won the Lombardi Award, given to the top Division I football player based on performance, leadership, character and resilience. Love was a Heisman Trophy runner-up to Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield last season, running for 162.9 yards per game and 8.04 per carry. He played the last month of the season through a nagging sprained ankle that forced him to miss one game. The Lombardi was presented Saturday night at Lone Star College in Houston.

Other finalists were Mayfield, Penn State running back Saquon Barkley, Alabama defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick, UCF linebacker Shaquem Griffin, Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson, and Iowa State linebacker Joel Lanning, who also played some quarterback for the Cyclones.

No. 22 Tennessee rolls past Iowa State 68-45

Sports

January 28th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Reserve Lamonte Turner scored 20 points, James Daniel III had 16 off the bench and 22nd-ranked Tennessee rolled past Iowa State 68-45 on Saturday in the SEC/Big 12 Challenge for its sixth win in seven games. Admiral Schofield had 10 points and seven rebounds for the Volunteers (15-5), who overcame a horrid start to post their fifth road win of the season.

Donovan Jackson had 13 points for the Cyclones (11-9), who were held to their lowest scoring output of the season. Senior Hans Brase replaced talented freshman Cam Lard in the starting lineup for the first time. Brase went scoreless while Lard finished with six points.

This was one of the Cyclones’ worst performances of the season. As a rebuilding program, a lack of focus can make things get ugly in a hurry — and getting outscored by 30 points in less than 20 minutes is about as ugly as it gets.

Iowa State hosts No. 7 West Virginia on Wednesday.
