AMES, Iowa (AP) - Bridget Carleton and Ines Nezerwa had 15 points each and Iowa State dominated throughout to beat No. 24 Miami 75-52 in the Preseason WNIT championship on Sunday.

Iowa State pulled away to its largest lead with a 14-2 run to get to 70-44 on Nezerwa’s layup with 5:38 left in the game.

The Cyclones (4-0) scored 12 straight near the end of the first quarter to lead 24-18 and never trailed again. The Hurricanes cut the deficit to 30-27 on Emese Hof’s layup with 2:31 left in the first half, but Iowa State scored seven straight to close the half up 10 and mostly led by double digits the rest of the way.
