Records Fall In ISU's 132-68 Triumph Over Alcorn State
12.03.2025 | Men's Basketball
AMES, Iowa – No. 10 Iowa State (8-0) put on an offensive clinic in a 132-68 victory over Alcorn State (1-10) Wednesday evening in Hilton Coliseum.
Led by Milan Momcilovic's 27 points and an 8-of-9 effort from 3-point range, the Cyclones scorched the nets in one of their top offensive performances in school history.
The point totals and percentages were staggering: A school-record 22 3-pointers on 30 attempts (73.3 pct.). A school-record 132 points. 65 first-half points (2nd most in an opening period). A 70.8 percent clip (45-65) from the field (2nd-best in school history). A 64-point margin of victory (fifth-best in school history).
Momcilovic made his first 8 3-point attempts, tying for the 3rd-most by a Cyclone in school history, and he had help from Jamarion Batemon, who poured in a career-high 26 points on 7-of-10 shooting from downtown to help the Cyclones reach their school record of 22 3-pointers.
Joshua Jefferson was again outstanding. The senior pumped in 24 points and dished out a team-high 10 assists with zero turnovers, his second-straight 10-assist, zero-turnover game.
Nate Heise chipped in with 13 points and made all three of his 3-pointers in the Cyclone rout.
How it Happened
After spotting Alcorn State a 7-2 lead in the first minute and a half, the Cyclones immediately took over, responding with a 33-6 run in the next seven minutes, where they made 13-of-14 field goals to take a 35-13 lead.
Jefferson made six of his first seven shots and had 15 points in the first seven minutes of the contest.
A quick 10-2 burst put the Cyclones up 47-18 with 5:15 left in the opening period. Momcilovic hit a pair of 3-pointers and Batemon scored another, as the Cyclones were successful on their first seven attempts beyond the arc.
The game was out of reach at the half with the Cyclones holding a 65-28 lead behind Jefferson's 20 first-half points. ISU made 75.9 pct. (22-of-29) from the field and 83.3 pct. (10-of-12) from downtown.
The Cyclone lead ballooned to 46 by the first media timeout, as the Cyclones were 6-of-7Â from the field to begin the second half, including five points from Heise.
A Batemon 3-pointer put the Cyclones over the century mark (102-40) with 9:22 left in the game.
Key Performer
Milan Momcilovic literally couldn't miss. The Cyclone sharpshooter made his first eight 3-point attempts before missing his final attempt en route to a game-high 27 points. His eight 3-pointers made ties for the third-most by a Cyclone in school history. He finished the game 9-of-12 from the field and he also registered a career-high five steals.
Notes
- Joshua Jefferson secured his 80th career collegiate win.
- He also surpassed 150 assists at ISU.
Up Next
Iowa State will be back in action this Saturday, Dec. 6, when it heads to West Lafayette to take on top-ranked Purdue. Saturday's top-ten showdown is set to tip at 11 a.m. and the game will be televised on CBS.
