Second-seeded Michigan State leads third-seeded Iowa at halftime of a Big Ten Tournament semifinal, 26-25.

Freshman Trisha Nesbitt leads all Hawkeyes with eight points off of the bench. Nesbitt was two-of-three on 3-point shots.

Freshman Jaime Printy scored three points but only played four minutes after picking up two early fouls. She sat on the bench for the remainder of the first half.

The Spartans’ 6-9 senior center, Allyssa DeHaan, sat on the bench to start the game after being listed as questionable with back spasms. DeHaan played nine minutes off the bench and recorded two points.

The winner advances to face either No. 10 Ohio State or Wisconsin in Sunday’s championship game.
