Scouting Iowa
Iowa heads into Saturday’s game with a 9-5 overall record after dropping a 70-65 road decision at Illinois in its Big Ten opener on Wednesday.
Sophomore post Megan Gustafson led the Hawkeyes with 21 points and 13 rebounds, while senior guard Ally Disterhoft added a double-double of her own with 11 points and 12 rebounds in a losing effort to the Illini.
Freshman point guard Kathleen Doyle contributed 12 points and six assists, while junior forward Christina Buttenham pitched in 12 points and five rebounds but committed five turnovers before fouling out in 25 minutes of action.
Sophomore starting guard Tania Davis was shut out on 0-for-6 shooting in 35 minutes, although she managed five rebounds and five assists.
The Hawkeyes struggled against the Illini defense, tying a season high by committing 23 turnovers, including four each by Davis and Doyle. Iowa hit just 37.7 percent (23-61) of its shots from the floor, including just 7-of-28 three-pointers. The Hawkeyes did connect on 12-of-14 free throws and outrebounded Illinois by a whopping 46-28 margin. However, Illinois won the turnover battle 23-13.
Nebraska heads to Iowa after suffering a narrow 62-58 loss to 12-2 Northwestern on Wednesday at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln.
Sophomore Jessica Shepard led the Huskers with 17 points and 15 rebounds, while freshman Hannah Whitish added a career-high 12 points while making her first career start.
The Huskers will try to snap a four-game losing streak in the series with the Hawkeyes that includes a 74-68 loss to Iowa in Lincoln last New Year’s Eve.
