After a 12-8 regular season, the Atlantic Trojans Girls Basketball team earned the right to host their first playoff game. They head into the Regional Tournament winning 4 of their last 5 games, which included three wins by double digits. The Trojans bring a balanced offensive attack that has three girls averaging over eight points a game. Leading scorer Katrina Williams also leads Atlantic in rebounding with 8 per game. The season is long, which means that many of the girls have been put in playoff type situations. Head Coach Dan Vargason sees this as one of the main strengths of his team.

Coach Vargason doesn’t want to depend on just one player. He wants every girl on the court to play their role:

Two girls on the Trojans have stood out as leaders when times get tough:

Coach Vargason has this message for his team heading into the playoffs:

The Exira-EHK Spartans fell to the Logan-Magnolia Panthers by a score of 58-45 on Friday night. Despite great efforts in the second half by the Spartans, the Panthers’ were able to stop any comeback attempts. Cale Cunard of Logan-Magnolia finished with a game high 23 points and hit multiple free throws at the end of the 4th quarter to seal the Panthers victory. It was a close matchup for most of the game but Logan-Magnolia pulled away at the end and will head to the 2nd Round.

In the first half, the Panthers controlled much of the time of possession and seemed in control of the offensive side. The Spartans were able to claw back near the end of the half but still trailed by 7. They ran the offense nicely through leading scorer Austin Rasmussen, but it seemed like the shots weren’t falling yet.

In the third quarter, the three point shots started to fall and it felt like Extra-EHK was one good run from making the game very interesting. The ball movement was working nicely as well. The Spartans did a good job of driving into the paint and finding a wide open shooter in the corner. Logan-Magnolia was just playing more physical and kept getting inside for easy buckets and led going into the 4th quarter.

In the 4th, it looked like the Panthers physicality under the basket became too much for the Spartans as the quarter went on. Cale Cunard finished with a game high for either side with 23 points. Every time the Spartans got a little life, Cunard would be wide open on the other end for a layup. Austin Rasmussen started hitting a few threes for the Spartans, but it was too little too late. Logan-Magnolia defeated Extra-EHK in the preliminary round of the Class 1A Region 8 tournament by a score of 58-45.

Iowa coach Ben McCollum says Bennett Stirtz needs help as the Hawkeyes get ready to host 13th ranked Purdue Saturday afternoon. Iowa’s senior point guard is averaging over 30 points per game in the last four games.

McCollum thought his team struggled defensively in Wednesday night’s loss at Maryland. They will need to be much better against Purdue.

The Hawkeyes played well but lost the first meeting against the Boilermakers 79-72 one month ago.

Saturday’s game will be the first sellout in Carver-Hawkeye Arena in nearly two years.

The Hawkeyes are 8-5 in the Big Ten and 18-6 overall.  Catch the game on KJAN beginning at 3-p.m., Saturday.

Drake got outscored 19-5 to close the game and lost another one at home 80 to 70 to Illinois-Chicago. The Bulldogs fell behind by 15 in the opening half and suffered its fifth straight loss.

That’s Drake coach Eric Henderson, who is considering some changes for Sunday’s game at Northern Iowa.

Henderson on what some of the changes might be.

The Bulldogs are 6-10 in the Valley and 12-15 overall.

Northern Iowa fell victim to a late 7-0 run and lost at Missouri Valley leader Belmont 91-86 as the Panthers had their three game win streak snapped. Belmont shot a sizzling 64 percent in the second half.

That’s UNI coach Ben Jacobson, who says the Bruins are a difficult team to guard.

The Panthers are 8-7 in the Valley and 16-10 overall heading into Sunday’s game at home against Drake.

Northern Iowa women’s coach Tanya Warren got the offense she was looking for. The Panthers scored 32 points in the opening quarter and beat Indiana State 91-79 in the McLeod Center.

Warren on what got the offense going.

Senior forward Ryley Goebel tied a career high with 32 points and also tied a career high with 16 rebounds.

UNI improves to 8-6 in the Missouri Valley Conference.
