On Wednesday the Houston Cougars faced off against the Iowa State Cyclones at Fertitta Center, losing 76-64.
After winning a close game on the road at Oklahoma State, UH’s momentum was halted on its second to last home game of the season.
In the first quarter the game was tight with both teams trading buckets early.
That pace continued in addition to the Cougars having success defensively, forcing Iowa State to five turnovers but they still trailed 18-17 at the end of the first.
In the second, Houston struggled to score. Despite getting solid looks, UH’s first field goal did not come until the four-minute mark.
