#17 Iowa vs Purdue Game Thread

[EstronHawkKing]

Are women's games shorter in length of game time? Women's games just fly by

Iowa steal and layup 48-49

 

[hagarwood]

Purdue 49-48 and still hitting 50 per cent from 3. Women play same 40 minutes as men.

 

[ClintonIAfan]

I think Iowa has a big 4th quarter in them.

 

[hagarwood]

Purdue 57-49 after 3 quarters.

 

[ClintonIAfan]

Lexi 3 58-59!

 

[hagarwood]

Purdue 67-63 with 3:55 to go.

 

[hagarwood]

Purdue 67-65 and possession.

 

[hagarwood]

Purdue 69-65 with 45 seconds left and possession. Hawks need some luck.

 

[hagarwood]

Purdue is going to win. 76-70. Megan with 37 and 14, but Purdue hits 53 per cent from three. Iowa needs to find Megan some help.

 

[ClintonIAfan]

I think that is a career high for Megan with 37 points. 70-76 final after some bad officiating

 

[EstronHawkKing]

Megan is a female version of former Boston Celtic great Kevin McHale. Long arms with incredible down low post moves

True freshman Lexi may have been due for an off day. O, who has been off on her outside shooting recently, was good on her only attempt. Finally, the loss of MacnMeyer has reared its ugly head

Just curious to hear from those at the game. The Hawks looked like a team recovering from the flu. They seemed to run out of gas late and left lots of shots short. The biggest thing I saw from the officiating was the moving screens that Purdue used at the top of the key. This is one of those tough Big Ten games. Purdue shot much better than usual and Iowa, except for Megan struggled. Two tough road games coming up. We will bounce back.
