Royal had a basket and a three-point play in an 11-3 run to begin the second half, upping the Buckeyes' advantage to 12. Sandfort hit a 3-pointer to get Iowa within nine, but Thornton answered with a 3-pointer and Sean Stewart stole the ball and dunked to cap 9-0 run for a 50-32 lead with 12:26 remaining.
