Second half, part 1

START OF SECOND HALF: IOWA STATE 28, A&M 25

Interesting note -- Iowa State hasn't led at the half yet in this tournament. We'll see how they handle the lead.

A&M is 16-0 when it shoots over 40 percent, and 8-5 when it doesn't... Defense matters...

GAME ON!

19:49 Rejection Wieben, ISU ball.

19:40 Turnover ISU, Ross fouls, it's her thrid personal, and Iowa State doesn't want to foul this often...

19:17 Traveling, A&M.

18:50 Ronhovde misses a three, noone there to rebound for ISU.

18:29 3-pointer Amanda Nisleit. 31-25 Iowa State.

18:10 3-pointer A&M with a wide-open look. 31-28 Iowa State.

17:54 3-pointer Ronhovde. 34-28 Iowa State.

17:20 Ronhovde foul while trying to rebound ... 2nd team foul...

17:14 Medders fouls...3rd team foul...

17:04 Traveling, A&M turnover, Cyclone ball.

16:54 Traveling, Medders. turnover, A&M ball.

16:39 A&M jumper good. 34-30 Iowa State, and it needs a bucket here.

16:19 Traveling on Nisleit. Turnover, Cyclones, A&M ball. Iowa State needs to get it together in a hurry.

15:59 running jumper good by A&M 34-32 Iowa State.

15:39 Lacey for three. 37-32 Iowa State.

14:50, not only did Medders save a possession by throwing the ball off an A&M player, but she managed to spill a Dr. Pepper all over press row. That'll teach 'em..

Iowa State needs to keep its pressure up, and focus on getting good looks at the hoop. When they get those looks, they need to bury the shots. A bucket on this possession would be big right now.

14:34 Ronhovde buries a three. 40-32 Iowa State.

13:48, turnover, Iowa State. That's a bummer, as the Cyclones could have used a bucket there.

13:33 3-pointer A&M. 40-35 Iowa State.

13:08 airball, Ezell, out of bounds. A&M ball, and this is trouble. Big trouble.

12:46 Over-the-back on A&M ... Cyclone ball, and just A&M's first team foul.

12:17 Ezell for three. 43-35 Iowa State.

11:56 layup, A&M 43-37 Iowa State.

11:34 ill-advised shot by Lacey, A&M rebound.

11:17 A&M will be shooting two freethrows after the media timeout. Iowa State's fourth team foul.

They really need to watch their fouls now, and continue to get good looks. A&M is going to make a run, there's no doubt about it. That's why they're the No. 13 team in the nation and the top seed in this Tourney. The Cyclones need to weather the storm.

11:17: IOWA STATE 43, A&M 37 See you on the other side.
