Stirtz’s 25-point night lifts Iowa over Maryland

Bennett Stirtz exploded for 25 points, helping Iowa men’s basketball snap back after a tough loss and dominate Maryland at Carver-Hawkeye Arena. The Hawkeyes looked like a different team after struggling with Michigan State’s defense and rebounding. This time, they found their rhythm, with Cam Manyawu, Tate Sage, and Cooper Koch all chipping in double figures. But Iowa’s size in the paint is still a concern—can they keep winning if Stirtz isn’t on fire? With a big rivalry game at Iowa State coming up, it’s a good time to ask: Who else will step up for the Hawkeyes? #Sports #IowaBasketball #BennettStirtz
