After a slow start in Iowa City that saw the Hawkeyes down 16 points early, the Iowa women’s basketball team scored 27, 26, and 26 points in the second, third, and fourth quarters respectively to beat Nebraska (13-4). The Hawkeyes improved to 10-4 on the season. Nebraska was jacking threes on the day at a very impressive 47% clip. The Hawkeyes attempted a third of those (4-11 / 36%). The difference in the game was Iowa’s free throw shooting. The Hawks got to the line 34 times and made 31 (88.9%). In today’s game of shooting from deep, attacking the basket and drawing fouls has become a lost art.
