Iowa drills Iowa State
December 9, 2001
-Iowa drilled Iowa State 78-53 Saturday night at
Hilton Coliseum and the final stats show how the
Hawkeye domination.
-The Hawkeyes outrebounded the Cyclones 47-24 and had
a big 9-0 advantage in three-point shots made. Besides
not making a three-pointer, the Cyclones also missed
11 free throws.
-“We got beat in every category tonight,” Cyclone
coach Larry Eustacy said. It’s no big story, Iowa is
just a much better team. It was a lot of experience
over a lot of youth.”
-Reggie Evans was a magnum force for the Hawkeyes,
scoring 24 points and snaring 17 rebounds. Evans
collected 13 rebounds on the defensive end as the
Cyclones were limited to one shot on several
possessions.
-“We haven’t gotten pounded on the boards like that in
a long time,” Eustachy said. “Reggie (Evans) is just a
great player.”
-The Cyclones shot just 34.7 percent from the field,
including the dismal 0-for-8 finish from three-point
range. Tyray Pearson led the Cyclones with 20 points
while Shane Power added 17 points and nine rebounds.
-The 25-point margin of defeat evens the largest for a
Cyclone team in Hilton Coliseum. The other 25-point
loss was a 105-80 defeat to Vanderbilt on Nov. 29, 1975.
