By AnnArbor.com Staff

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State had its worst shooting night of the season against the Michigan women's basketball team on Sunday afternoon, but the Wolverines weren't able to capitalize in a 60-47 loss.

The No. 19-ranked Cyclones shot only 32 percent, but Jessica Schroll and Chelsea Poppens came up with some key offensive rebounds in the second half to keep possessions alive and Iowa State hit five 3-pointers during a 6-minute stretch late in the game to take control.

Veronica Hicks and Rachel Sheffer led Michigan (4-4) with 10 points each. Kelsey Bolte scored 20 points for Iowa State (6-1).

Michigan led by as many as seven points in the first half before a Lauren Mansfield driving layup just before halftime gave Iowa State a 26-24 lead.

Bolte hit three of five Cyclone 3-pointers during a span that saw them extend their lead from 38-36 to 55-47.
