AMES, Iowa – Iowa State rallied from a 31-7 deficit to force overtime and Grant Rohach hit Justin Coleman for the game-winner on the first play of the third overtime, as the Cyclones beat West Virginia, 52-44, in the final game of the season for both teams. With the win, Iowa State finishes the season 3-9 overall and 2-7 in the Big 12. West Virginia falls to 4-8 overall and 2-7 in league play.
