In Des Moines, Rutgers overcame a stubborn Iowa State team and pro-Cyclone crowd to move on to the Sweet 16 for the fourth straight year.
Once again, Kia Vaughn had a great first half and opened up things for the guards in the second half. Vaughn finished with 23, while Prince and Ajavon added 17 and 16.
In the other game in Iowa - some may have questioned the selection of Florida State in the tournament. But it took overtime and a last second free throw by Andrea Riley for Oklahoma State to eliminate FSU from the tournament and advance to the Sweet 16. Riley finished with 21 and Danielle Green scored 23 for the Cowgirls.
The win continues a remarkable turnaround for OSU, who went 0-16 in Big 12 play two years ago.
