Instead of Iowa State making a run to start the second half, Iowa extended its lead even more, going up 64-35 with 10:32 remaining in the game.

The Cyclones did manage to go on an 11-0 run to pull within 66-49 with 4:41 remaining, but by then it was too late.

Iowa made sure there wouldn't be any drama at the end by producing a 7-0 run to take a 73-49 lead with 3:36 left on a 3-pointer by Rebraca.

The Hawkeyes ended up shooting 12 of 23 from 3-point range, while Iowa State was just 3 of 22.
