COLUMBUS (AP) — Brice Sensabaugh scored a season-high 27 points on 10-of-12 shooting, including 4 of 5 from 3-point range, and Ohio State ended a five-game losing streak with a 93-77 win over Iowa.
The Hawkeyes overcame a 12-0 Ohio State run in the first half but a 9-0 run early in the second half provided the room the Buckeyes needed to end a skid of single-digit losses.
Isaac Likekele had a season-high 18 points with 10 rebounds and seven assists for Ohio State.
Kris Murray had 22 points to lead Iowa.
Iowa was 7 of 15 from 3-point range and shot 48% in the second half but couldn’t keep pace with the Buckeyes, who shot 65% and had a 21-10 rebounding advantage after the break.
