IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz says cornerback Desmond King, the Thorpe Award winner as the country’s top defensive back, will return for his senior season. King’s somewhat unexpected return should only bolster Iowa’s case as the preseason favorites in the Big Ten West.

Iowa went 12-2 last season, falling to Stanford 45-16 in the Rose Bowl last week. But with the majority of their starters returning next season, expectations will be as high as they’ve ever been for the Hawkeyes next fall.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Brooke McCarty scored 17 points, making five 3-pointers, and No. 4 Texas defeated Iowa State 75-54 on Wednesday night to remain undefeated and snap the Cyclones eight-game winning streak. Imani Boyette had 11 points and season-bests of 17 rebounds and seven blocks for the Longhorns, whose 14-0 start is their best since they were undefeated NCAA champions in 1986.

Texas, which has won its first three Big 12 games, made a season-high 11 3-pointers. The Longhorns were just 12 of 59 from behind the arc in their previous four games. Seanna Johnson scored 23 points to lead Iowa State (10-4, 2-1), which saw its eight-game winning streak end. The Longhorns led 38-25 at halftime, but not without enduring some trials along the way.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (AP) — Dequon Miller’s layup with five seconds left lifted Missouri State to a 59-58 victory over Northern Iowa on Wednesday night, snapping the Bears’ four-game losing streak.

Ryan Kreklow made three free throws, two with 42 seconds left, to cut Northern Iowa’s lead to 58-57. After the Panthers struggled to get the ball upcourt, calling two timeouts, Klint Carlson missed on a baseline drive. Kreklow got the rebound and Miller raced down the floor and scored before the Panthers’ Wes Washpun missed a short jumper at the buzzer. The victory snapped a six-game losing streak to Northern Iowa.

Chris Kendrix scored 17 points to lead the Bears (5-10, 1-2 Missouri Valley). Obediah Church added 10 points and eight rebounds. Washpun and Matt Bohannon each had 15 points for the Panthers (9-7, 1-2). The Panthers never trailed in the second half until Miller’s winning basket, leading by 10 with 9:17 remaining.

Kale Abrahamson ended the run with a 3-pointer and C.J. Rivers made back-to-back baskets after a defensive rebound and a steal by Nick McGlynn. Jacob Enevold led Drake (5-10, 0-3) with 14 points. Rivers had 13 and Abrahamson 11.
