MASON CITY — The NIACC men remained ranked fourth in the new junior college Division II poll released on Monday. NIACC improves to 13-1 overall with a 100-88 win over Iowa Western on Saturday night. North Central Missouri is the #1 team in this week’s men’s poll, followed by Milwaukee Area Tech, Niagara County, NIACC and then DMACC.

Both NIACC teams host Little Priest Tribal College on Wednesday night in games you’ll hear on AM-1300 KGLO and kgloam.com, with the doubleheader starting at 5:30.

IOWA CITY — The Iowa Hawkeyes could be down a third starter on Tuesday night when they visit Nebraska. Freshman guard CJ Fredrick missed the second half of Saturday’s loss at Penn State with a foot or ankle injury. He is the Big Ten’s leading three point shooter at 50 percent.
That’s Iowa coach Fran McCaffery who says the injury is not a sprained ankle and he is not sure when it occurred.
If Fredrick can’t go McCaffery may insert backup center Ryan Kriener into the lineup. He injured a knee in Saturday’s loss.
The Hawkeyes have already lost forward Jack Nunge and guard Jordan Bohannon to season ending surgeries. Under first year coach Fred Hoiberg the Huskers are 6-8 overall and 1-2 in the Big Ten. You can hear the conclusion of the Iowa-Nebraska game on AM-1300 KGLO tonight after Mason City High basketball coverage.
AMES — Texas used a 12-0 third quarter run to take command in an 81-75 win over the Iowa State women in Ames, Cyclone coach Bill Fennelly.
Fennelly says the Cyclones needed to be stronger against the Longhorn’s physical style of play.
Iowa State falls to 9-4 overall and 1-1 in the Big 12. They’ll travel to Oklahoma on Saturday.
IOWA CITY — Iowa safety Geno Stone is headed to the NFL Draft.
