James' 25 points not enough in UNI's 79-68 loss

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The Northern Iowa tandem of Anthony James and Jake Koch wasn't enough to make up for the way 12th-ranked Creighton made 3-point specialist Marc Sonnen disappear.

James scored a season-high 25 points and Koch added 19 in the Panthers' 79-68 loss to the 12th-ranked Bluejays Tuesday night.

Sonnen, who made seven 3-pointers and matched his career high with 21 points against Bradley on Saturday, didn't score until the middle of the second half and finished with five points for the Panthers (9-9, 2-4 Missouri Valley Conference).
