Iowa State's Second-Half Surge Secures Victory Over Rival Iowa
The No. 3 Iowa State Cyclones secured an 89-80 comeback victory against the Iowa Hawkeyes, overcoming a 13-point deficit in the first half. Curtis Jones led the Cyclones with 23 points, including crucial three-pointers in the second half, while Joshua Jefferson contributed a double-double. Despite Iowa's strong start, shooting 61% in the first half, their performance waned, allowing ISU to take control in the final minutes. The win marks ISU's first victory at Carver-Hawkeye Arena since 2014.
