IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) --- Bennett Stirtz and reserves Alvaro Folgueiras and

Jalen Griffith and reserve Carson Vis each scored 11 to pace the Broncos (5-6),
now 1-5 on the road. Jayden Brewer added 10 points.
Manyawu had the final two baskets in a game-opening 8-0 run. Griffith answered
with five straight points for Western Michigan, but Sage sank back-to-back
3-pointers in a 22-3 surge for a 34-10 advantage with 8:21 left in the half.
Stirtz had 10 points by halftime, Folgueiras scored nine and the Hawkeyes
closed with a 9-0 run to up their advantage to 52-16. Iowa made 14 of its first
20 shots, while the Broncos missed 14 of their first 18.
Stirtz and Cooper Koch hit 3-pointers to push the lead to 42 in the first two
