Women's Top 25 roundup: No. 10 Iowa handles No. 12 Ohio State with ease
Iowa forward Hannah Stuelke (45) shoots the basketball against Ohio State guard Jaloni Cambridge (22) Jan. 25, 2026 at Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City, Iowa. Hannah Stuelke posted 18 points and 15 rebounds, Addie Dea scored a career-high 20 points off the bench and No. 10 Iowa cruised to a 91-70 victory over No. 12 Ohio State Sunday afternoon in Iowa City.
Iowa (18-2, 9-0 Big Ten) took control early with a 12-0 run late in the first quarter, building a lead it never relinquished. The Buckeyes (18-3, 7-2) pulled to within five points early in the second quarter, but never came any closer despite shooting 14-of-34 (41.2%) from 3-point range compared to Iowa's 9-of-22.
Ohio State's Jaloni Cambridge led all scorers with 26 points, knocking down 6 of 9 3-point attempts, and added 10 rebounds for a double-double, but the Hawkeyes countered with a balanced scoring attack and a 42-14 advantage in points in the paint.
Four Hawkeyes scored in double-figures, including Addison Deal (20 points, five assists) and Ava Heiden (18). Chazadi Wright added 14 points to help Iowa remain perfect in conference play.
No. 7 Michigan 73, Southern California 67
Olivia Olson (24 points) led all five starters in double figures for the Wolverines, who rallied in the fourth quarter to hold off the upset-minded Trojans in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Michigan (17-3, 8-1 Big Ten) jumped to a double-digit-point lead early and extended it to as many as 16 points in the second and third quarters, but gave up a 31-13 disparity to Southern California (11-9, 3-6) in the third quarter.
The Trojans took a five-point lead into the final period, thanks in part to Kara Dunn's game highs of 26 points and 10 rebounds. But Michigan's defense clamped USC down to surrender just nine points over the final 10 minutes. Mila Holloway finished with 13 points, eight assists and six rebounds for the Wolverines, while Brooke Quarles Daniels, Ashley Sofilkanich and Syla Swords each adding 10 points.
No. 16 Oklahoma 72, Auburn 65
Aaliyah Chavez knocked down four 3-pointers and scored 18 points, and the visiting Sooners avoided a letdown with their road win over their Southeastern Conference counterpart Tigers.
Coming off Thursday's 94-82 upset of No. 2 South Carolina, Oklahoma (16-4, 4-3 SEC) clinched another win with a 13-5 fourth-quarter run after Auburn (13-8, 2-4) tied the game midway through the fourth quarter. Sahara Williams, who scored 13 points on 5-of-7 shooting from inside the 3-point line, grabbed nine boards to lead Oklahoma.
Oklahoma struggled shooting from deep as a team much of the way, making just 6 of 24 (25%), but Chavez knocked down 44.4% of her attempts. Auburn shot 7 of 19 from deep (36.8%), with A'riel Jackson scoring nine of her game-high 19 points on 3-of-6 shooting from beyond the arc. The Tigers could not match Oklahoma on the glass, with the Sooners posting a 39-31 rebounding edge and turning 13 offensive boards into 19 second-chance points.
