Iowa Shocks #13 Michigan

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) _ Senior guard Matt Gatens scored 19 points

and Iowa beat No. 13 Michigan 75-59 on Saturday.

Roy Devyn Marble added 13 points for Iowa (11-8, 3-3 Big Ten),

which snapped an ugly two-game losing streak and picked up its

first conference home win.

Iowa went on a 10-0 run in the second half to build a 53-37 lead

and the game was never close again. The spurt included a 3-pointer

by Gatens and a dunk by Melsahn Basabe _ both on assists from

backup point guard Bryce Cartwright. Gatens sealed the game with

another 3-pointer that gave Iowa a 63-48 lead.

Freshman point guard Trey Burke led Michigan (14-4, 4-2) with 19

points despite sitting out much of the first half after picking up

two fouls.
