The late season woes continued for No. 9 Baylor on Saturday as it fell for the fifth time in eight games with a score of 72-69 to Iowa State.
Senior guard Deonte Burton scored 22 points, including 15 in the first half to lead Iowa State. The Cyclones hit seven of 10 free throws in the final minute to hold off Baylor as junior guard Al Freeman’s three-pointer at the buzzer fell off the mark.
Not only did Burton lead Iowa State in scoring, but he also came up with two of the biggest plays in the game for the Cyclones.
