Clifford Omoruyi - Dominant on boards Omoruyi amassed seven points (3-9 FG, 1-3 FT), 14 rebounds, three blocks and two steals across 26 minutes during Wednesday's 48-46 win over Iowa. Impact Omoruyi was held to single figures in the scoring column for a second consecutive game Wednesday since he converted just 33.3 percent of his attempts from the floor. However, the sophomore brought in a season-high 14 rebounds and has now logged at least 10 boards in five of the last six games. During that time, he's averaged 9.7 points and 10.3 rebounds in 27.0 minutes per contest. He did take a scary fall in the second half and needed to be tended to by team trainers, but the lower-leg issue seemed to resolve itself quickly, and Omoruyi was back in the contest minutes afterwards.
