First-half Hawkeye runs too much for Rockets
IOWA CITY, Iowa – The Toledo women's basketball team fell to Iowa 94-57 in a non-conference matchup at Carver-Hawkeye Arena on Wednesday.
Â
The Rockets (1-1) were victimized by several Hawkeye runs throughout the game as Iowa (3-0) pulled away to a large lead in the first half.
Â
Toledo was led on the scoresheet by graduate student Sammi Mikonowicz, who scored 17 points. Freshman Kendall Carruthers added 15, while graduate student Hannah Noveroske added 10 points.
Â
Noveroske also led the Rockets on the glass with seven rebounds and added two blocks. Sophomore Cadence Dykstra dished a team-high five assists, her career high.
Â
"We settled in and got a little bit too comfortable, and couldn't keep up with their pace," said Head Coach Ginny Boggess. "We started to settle on our shots, got fatigued and fouled early. Iowa is a big and physical team, and they're very well-coached. All of this is preparation, all of this is feedback and I'm excited to see how the team responds."
