AMES, Iowa (AP) — Audi Crooks had 30 points and 10 rebounds, Addy Brown had 20 points and 12 boards, and No. 10 Iowa State held off No. 11 Iowa’s comeback bid for a 74-69 victory Wednesday night.

The Cyclones (11-0) led by 17 points late in the third quarter before Iowa went on a 26-12 run to make it a three-point game late in the second half.

The Hawkeyes had a chance to tie it, but Mackenzie Hare blocked Taylor McCabe’s 3-point attempt with 16 seconds left. Crooks then made a free throw to make it 73-69 and secure her fourth 30-point game of the season.

Crooks scored in double figures for the 78th straight game, the longest active streak in the country.

The Hawkeyes’ Ava Heiden, who came in averaging a team-best 16.1 points, was assigned to Crooks and was limited to 16 minutes because of foul trouble. She made back-to-back layups to get Iowa close before she fouled out, and after Feuerbach hit two free throws, it was 65-62 with four minutes to play.

Iowa State has won 12 of 15 in the CyHawk Series, but the Hawkeyes lead the series 32-24.
