CLEAR LAKE — Carson Toebe’s put-back of a missed shot at the buzzer kept Clear Lake’s perfect season in tact as the 2nd-ranked Lions came back from seven points down late in the fourth quarter to beat Webster City 52-51 in North Central Conference boys basketball last night, as you heard on AM-1490/96.7-FM KRIB. Toebe’s quick jumper happened with eight-tenths of a second remaining and gave the Lions only their second single-digit win of the season, with the other also coming against Webster City back on December 11th. Toebe had 12 while Drew Enke led Clear Lake with 20 points. Clear Lake is 14-0 overall and 9-0 in the conference and will host Crestwood on Thursday night.

LAWRENCE, KANSAS — A good effort for Iowa State came up short at Kansas. The ninth ranked Jayhawks turned the game around in the second half with a 14-0 run in an 80-76 win. Marial Shayok led ISU with 26 points. Michael Jacobson added 12 points and 11 rebounds.

The Cyclones fall to 4-3 in the Big 12.

Iowa State coach Steve Prohm.

Prohm says there were too many breakdowns at both ends.

Iowa State drops to 14-5 overall and joins the rest of the Big 12 in taking a break from league play this weekend as they’ll travel to Ole Miss on Saturday for the Big 12/SEC Challenge.

 

 

DES MOINES — There is a logjam in the middle of the Missouri Valley Conference as the new week begins. Two games separate third place from ninth place in the standings. Drake is 3-3 after Sunday’s win over Missouri State and returns to action Wednesday night at home against Evansville.

That’s Drake coach Darian DeVries, who feels his team has regrouped after losing senior guard Nick Norton to a knee injury.

UNI is also 3-3 and returns to action Wednesday at Southern Illinois.
