COLUMBUS, OHIO — The win streak for the 2nd-ranked Iowa Hawkeye women is over at 15. Ohio State outscored the Hawkeyes 17-9 in overtime as the 18th-ranked Buckeyes claimed a 100-92 victory in Columbus. It was a game Iowa led by 12 early in the fourth quarter.

That’s Iowa coach Lisa Bluder. Caitlin Clark poured in 45 points but the Hawkeyes had no answer for Ohio State sophomore forward Cotie McMahon, who had a career high 33 points and added 12 rebounds.

Mollie Davis continued her strong play for the Hawkeyes. She finished with 14 points and eight assists.

The Hawkeyes fall to 7-1 in the Big Ten and 18-2 overall.

Iowa is off until Saturday when they host Nebraska.

CEDAR FALLS — The Northern Iowa women had a four game winning streak snapped with a 72-67 loss to Belmont in Cedar Falls. The Panthers shot only 39 percent as they fall to 4-2 in the Valley.
