MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Ava Heiden had 16 points and 14 rebounds, Chadazi Wright added 14 points and No. 9 Iowa secured the No. 2 seed in the Big Ten Tournament with an 81-52 victory over Wisconsin on Sunday in the regular-season finale.
Playing without injured leading rebounder and No. 2 scorer Hannah Stuelke, Iowa (24-5, 15-3) led 33-29 at the half and had a 26-9 edge in the third quarter.
Stuelke was out with an upper-body injury sustained in a win over Illinois on Thursday night. Stuelke is listed as day-to-day and hopeful to play in the conference tournament.
