AMES — The Iowa State women have another road game on Saturday at 24th-ranked West Virginia. The Cyclones are coming off a 60-58 loss at Kansas and have dropped their last two games. ISU coach Bill Fennelly says handling West Virginia’s pressure defense will be a key.

The Cyclones beat West Virginia two weeks ago in Ames but Fennelly says winning on the road offers a big challenge.

Iowa State is 12-6 overall and 6-2 in the conference.

 

 

PEORIA — The Drake women moved to 8-0 in the Missouri Valley Conference with a 77-65 win at Bradley. Kaitie Dinnebier scored 29 points and the Bulldogs led by as many as 20 in claiming a ninth straight win.

That’s Drake coach Allison Pohlman. The Bulldogs were outscored by Bradley 20-13 in the fourth quarter.

Drake is 15-4 overall.

 

 

NORMAL, ILLINOIS — The Northern Iowa women jumped out to a quick lead but Illinois State beat the Panthers 88-77 last night in Normal. Maya McDermott had 29 points while Grace Boffeli added 20 to lead Northern Iowa, as they drop to 5-11 overall and 4-3 in the Valley. They will play at Bradley on Saturday.
