The Iowa State Men’s Basketball faced the Milwaukee Panthers today in Hilton Coliseum in a matchup where Iowa State came out on top 68-53. Jaren Holmes led all scorers with 19 points. The Cyclones are now 3-0 on the season.
Here are my takeaways of tonight’s matchup:
Great Defensive Start
The Cyclones defense to start the game was unmatched as they caused a lot of easy turnovers. The Cyclones caused 27 turnovers in tonight’s game, most of them coming in the first half to get them out on an early run.
A lot like last season, this team’s identity has to be defense.
