RECAP

The Hawks were down 9 points at halftime, down 18 points in the second half, and down 10 points most of the game. Iowa fought back with 8 of 11 shooting from 3-point range (led by 3 clutch makes by Kent McCausland) to snap Kansas' 62-game home winning streak at Allen Fieldhouse. Iowa turned it over 31 times (a record for an opponent at Allen Fieldhouse), and struggled from the free throw line late in the game, which made the victory even more unlikely.
