Walker-Kimbrough leads No. 8 Maryland to win over Iowa
Shatori Walker-Kimbrough scored 19 points, Brionna Jones had 15 points and 11 rebounds and No. 8 Maryland rolled past Iowa in a 76-56 win on Sunday in Frese's first game in her home state in 10 years.
Kristen Confroy added 11 points and the Terrapins forced 16 turnovers to snap Iowa's 25-game home winning streak.
Maryland (14-2, 3-1 Big Ten) has won two straight since falling to No. 5 Ohio State on Jan. 2.
Ally Disterhoft and Megan Gustafson each scored 14 points for the Hawkeyes (12-4, 2-2).
Frese hadn't coached a game in Iowa since 2006 when the Terrapins visited Northern Iowa.
"I thought we played for her and just put on a show for her," Walker-Kimbrough said.
Maryland led by double figures much of the second quarter, but Iowa cut the deficit to 42-35 less than a minute into the third quarter after Alexa Kastanek hit a 3-pointer and pair of free throws.
The Terrapins answered back in a big way.
Maryland tightened up its defense, forcing three turnovers and holding Iowa to two field goals over the next 5 1/2 minutes.
Jones scored seven of her 15 points during this key stretch. She started the scoring with a three-point play and finished it with a steal at midcourt and breakaway layup to make it 56-39 to complete a 14-4 run.
The Hawkeyes never got closer than 13 points the rest of the way.
