INDIANAPOLIS - The Iowa women continue their winning ways as they beat Penn State in the Big 10 tournament quarterfinals 82-75.

Former City High star Kelly Krei led Iowa with a career high 22 points. Another local star, Jaime Printy of Linn-Mar also had 22.
Kachine Alexander chipped in 17 and Kamille Wahlin had 13.

Bluder's Bunch trailed by 2 at the half, but opened it up in the 2nd, scoring 52 points, and leading at one point by 15.

The 3rd seeded Hawkeyes will play 2nd seed Michigan State Saturday afternoon at 4:00 in the semifinals.

Iowa is now 18-12 on the year, a win over the Spartans would all but guarantee them a spot in the Big Dance.
