Iowa State Cyclones Set to Host Kansas State Wildcats at James H. Hilton Coliseum

As the Iowa State Cyclones prepare to welcome the Kansas State Wildcats to the James H. Hilton Coliseum, fans are anticipating a thrilling encounter. The Cyclones have been on an impressive run, showcasing a potent offense and solid defense in their recent games.

In their last three outings, the Cyclones have dominated their opponents with an average margin of victory exceeding 30 points. Their scoring efficiency has been remarkable; they shot an impressive 60 percent from the field against Prairie View A&M and maintained a high shooting percentage in subsequent games.

The team's defensive prowess is also noteworthy, as evidenced by their ability to force turnovers and convert them into points. Against Florida A&M, they scored 31 points off turnovers alone and continued this trend by capitalizing on Prairie View A&M's mistakes for 34 points.

Rebounding has been another strong suit for Iowa State, with a significant rebounding advantage in their last game that led to 24 second-chance points—a testament to their tenacity on both ends of the floor.
