Iowa wrapped up an eventful trip to Cancun with a 68-48 victory over BYU Friday night, led by Hannah Stuelke's 16 points; she also added eight rebounds and three assists as the Hawkeyes cruised in paradise.
Jan Jensen becomes the first Hawkeye head coach to begin her career 8-0 with the win, which is also the fourth-best season start in program history.
"I'm so happy for the win, because of the fact of the adversity without Lucy Olsen," said Jensen, whose point guard missed her second-straight game after a freak practice accident left her with a deep cut on her knee; she's game-to-game. "Weathering not having your leader, captain, and still finding a way to win ... I'm just happy."
