Takeaways Kansas City: The Roos, who lost 82-56 at No. 7 Iowa State on Monday, played back-to-back ranked opponents for the first time in program history. The schedule now becomes more manageable for the preseason pick to win the Summit League.

Key moment Traudt hit three 3s late in the first half to put the Bluejays up 46-25 after the Roos had whittled Creighton's lead to 12 points.

Key stat Kansas City's 29.3% shooting from the field (22 of 75) was its worst since it shot 29.1% against Loyola-Chicago on Nov. 16, 2017, according to Sportradar.

Up next Kansas City is at home to play Calvary University on Monday, and Creighton hosts Nebraska on Friday looking for its 12th win over the Cornhuskers in 14 meetings.
