WVU women knock off No. 11 Iowa St.
MORGANTOWN — The WVU women’s basketball team officially became road warriors on Sunday, and along the way the Mountaineers defense and forward Kierra Wheeler made some major statements, as well.
The Mountaineers improved to 4-0 in true road games this season and Wheeler came out on the better end of her low-post showdown against Iowa State’s Audi Crooks, as West Virginia ran past the 11th-ranked Cyclones for an 83-70 victory inside Hilton Coliseum in Ames, Iowa.
It was West Virginia’s third consecutive win against Iowa State (14-3, 2-3 Big 12), and they handed the Cyclones their third straight loss of the season.
In all, the Cyclones were added to a road victim’s list of WVU that also includes Big 12 foes Kansas and Kansas State, as well as Texas A&M from the SEC.
