The story of this game was Lanie Page.
The redshirt-freshman was averaging 1.2 points & had scored just 19 points all season until exploding for a 16-point night in Kansas State's 80-68 win.
Page hit 3 three-pointers, part of a 50% shooting night from behind the arc for the Associated Press No. 25 Wildcats. Page led a youthful Kansas State bench that out-scored Iowa State's 39-13, thanks to 11 points from freshman Eternati Willock and nine out of sophomore Kayla Goth.
Iowa State had pulled to within 72-68 on a three from Seanna Johnson with three minutes to play, but the visitors missed their final five shots and didn't score again.

No matter the difference in conference record (9-2 vs. 1-10), you don't deserve to win when
1. your top scorer (Jeremy Hollowell) is held to 10 points on 4-of-13 shooting
2. you turn the ball over 18 times
3. you shoot 5-for-15 from the free-throw line
4. and allow 14 3-pointers, nine to reserves
That all happened to Georgia State in a 77-72 loss, which snapped an eight-game winning streak.
Something about the Convocation Center that makes GSU uncomfortable. Since GSU re-joined and ASU joined the Sun Belt in 2014, that's three road losses in three years in Boone for the Panthers.
