Anthony Cowan Jr. scored a career-high 31 points, Jalen Smith had 18 points and 14 rebounds, and No. 15 Maryland beat 18th-ranked Iowa 82-72 Thursday night to snap the Hawkeyes’ five-game winning streak.

The Terrapins never trailed after halftime in the rematch of a Jan. 10 meeting that Iowa won to launch its five-game run.

With Cowan leading the way, Maryland won its fourth straight and improved to 12-0 at home.

Luka Garza scored 21 for the Hawkeyes and Joe Wieskamp had 17. Garza, the Big Ten’s leading scorer, was in foul trouble throughout.
