Caleb Love scored 22 points, including a game-tying shot from beyond halfcourt, to lead Arizona over No. 3 Iowa State 86-75 in overtime on Monday night.

Love was 1-11 from beyond the arc before making the game-tying shot. He made two more triples in overtime, helping the Wildcats outscore the Cyclones 15-4 in the extra period.

Three other Arizona players scored in double digits, including Tobe Awaka's 17 points. KJ Lewis and Carter Bryant each added 14 off the bench.

Tamin Lipsey led Iowa State in scoring with 18 points, while Dishon Jackson chipped in a double-double with 10 points and 10 boards. The Cyclones got only seven points from their bench.

The two teams were tied 10 times over the course of the contest.

Both teams play next on Saturday, as Iowa State hosts Kansas State, while Arizona travels to Tempe to face in-state rival Arizona State.
