BACK IN THE SADDLE: #15 IOWA 79, #25 RUTGERS 66

Does one man mean that much?

After being in and out, mainly out, of the lineup over the last six games, CJ Fredrick returned to the start and the #15 Iowa Hawkeyes (14-6, 8-5) added a tick to the win column with a 79-66 result over the #25 Rutgers Scarlet Knights (11-7, 7-7).

His impact goes beyond the box score, of course, mainly because it was a goose egg in the scoring column in 17 minutes. Despite leading much of the first half by double-digits, Iowa was teetering with a six-point lead and stagnant offensively midway through the second half.
