No. 15 Texas holds off Iowa State for 81-67 road win

In the second of four road games to close the regular season, the No. 15 Texas Longhorns took care of business against the Iowa State Cyclones in Ames for an 81-67 win on Tuesday.

Battling back from a knee injury a year ago, Texas senior guard Jase Febres provided a big boost with 3-of-4 shooting from three-point range, his most prolific shooting night since hitting 5-of-7 threes against TCU in late January last year.

Febres characterized his knee as 95-percent healed and discussed the difficulties of having to relearn things as simple as walking in his frustratingly long recovery from microfracture surgery that required plenty of focus on mindfulness techniques.
