Hoos Lose to Iowa State 60-47 Without Injured Scott

Wow, Virginia missed 13 of their first 14 shots as Canadian Jamie Vanderbeken scored 24 for the Cyclones.

Will Sherrill returned to the Virginia lineup Thursday night for the first time in a month, but he did not provide much of a spark as the Hoos lost for the second time in a row.

Leading scorer Mike Scott was a game-time scratch from the starting line-up for the Hoos, as his surgically repaired ankle was too painful and stiff to play on.

Iowa State shot 46% from the field, and 38% from three-point land.

Virginia (8-5) shot an atrocious 32%, and was 3 of 24 from behind the arch.

The Hoos had no players score in double-figures, and were led by K.T. Harrell with nine points.

Iowa State (12-2) led 24-15 at halftime, and Virginia missed thirteen of their first fourteen shots in the contest. Honestly, this was one of the most difficult performances to watch I have ever witnessed as a lifelong Virginia fan. Yikes!

Virginia returns to action Sunday when LSU comes to the JPJ for a 5:30 p.m tip-off. Go Hoos!
