AMES, Iowa — Former ISU basketball coach Glen Anderson has died.

Iowa State officials said Anderson, who was 79, died Friday at his home in Hot Springs, Ark.

Anderson coached the Cyclones from 1959 to 1971, recording the third-most wins in school history. He led the Cyclones to six upper-division finishes in the Big 8.

Anderson also recruited Zaid Abdul-Aziz, one of the top players in school history. Abdul-Aziz was the fifth overall pick in the 1968 NBA Draft and had his number retired by the school.

Anderson was 142-161 in 12 seasons at Iowa State.
