DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Keith Williams threw the go-ahead touchdown pass to Chris Campano with 1:21 to play Saturday to lead San Diego to a 17-14 comeback win over Drake. Trailing 14-10 in the fourth quarter, Williams mounted a 13-play, 87-yard drive — the Toreros’ longest of the game — capping it with a 7-yard pass to Campano for the win. Williams was 16 of 27 for 202 yards and an interception.

Williams put San Diego (7-1, 5-1 Pioneer) on the board with a 35-yard TD pass to Brandon White in the second quarter. David Long kicked a 50-yard field goal in the third quarter, and San Diego outgained Drake 271-204.

Conley Wilkins scored on a 1-yard run and Andy Rice had a 23-yard TD run to give the Drake (5-4, 4-2) an early 14-0 lead. San Diego’s victory ends the Bulldogs’ streak of 19-straight home conference game wins, with the last loss coming in 2009.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Mark Weisman and Akrum Wadley combined for 200 yards rushing and four touchdowns, leading Iowa to a 48-7 win over Northwestern on Saturday.

Weisman rushed for 94 yards and three touchdowns. It was the senior’s fifth straight game with multiple scores. Wadley rushed for 106 yards and a touchdown in his first career game.

The Hawkeyes recorded five sacks, scored off a blocked punt and recovered a fumble. Trevor Siemian completed 8 of 18 passes for 68 yards for Northwestern.

(AP) – Iowa State University says it has suspended indefinitely senior women’s basketball guard Nikki Moody for violations of team rules.

Coach Bill Fennelly says in a statement Friday Moody’s “attitude in the team setting has become a distraction to our learning environment.”

He says the team has high behavioral standards and Moody’s “behavior has been inconsistent with those values.” He says she can return to the team activities if and when improvement is seen.

There was no further explanation of what type of behavior led to the suspension.

Moody, a communications studies major, started 30 games last season for the Cyclones, averaging 12.5 points, 4.4 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game.
