WE LOVE HIGHLIGHTS so here are some from last night!

NOT TO BE OUTDONE Ashley Joens became the first ISU women’s basketball player to net 30 points and 20 rebounds in the Cyclones’ 79-59 win Tuesday afternoon. (Fun fact - Joens joins Courtney Paris, Danielle Crockrom and Brittney Griner as the only Big 12 players to record such a stat line!)
