AMES, Iowa (Interstat) — Iowa State used a commanding second-half surge to pull away from Arizona State for an 86-65 men’s basketball victory Saturday at Hilton Coliseum. The Cyclones, now 25-6, trailed 41-37 at halftime but outscored the Sun Devils 49-24 after intermission.

The Cyclones’ defense forced 22 turnovers, converting them into easy offense. Arizona State (16-15) was led by Massamba Diop’s 12 points but could not sustain its early momentum, shooting just 7 for 23 from three-point range. A crowd of 14,267 watched the Big 12 contest.
