Upper Iowa concluded their home opener with their largest margin of victory in school history, since becoming a division two program in 2005-06. The Peacocks scored 20+ points in all four quarters en route to a 68-point victory over the Northland College Lumberjills by a score of 89-21.

The Peacocks thrived on the defensive side of the ball as they recorded 15 steals and six blocks as a team. Senior Helen Staley led the team with three blocked shots while sophomore Ava Privet and redshirt-freshman Amara Retreage each recorded three steals. The team's defensive presence held Northland to under ten points in all four quarters, and the Peacocks did not allow a single field goal in the third quarter, giving up only one point in the ten-minute span. They forced 34 turnovers which led to 31 points, held Northland to 16.7% shooting, and outscored the Lumberjills 18-0 on second chance points and 19-0 on fast break points.
 
In just her second career game, freshman Lindsey Davis scored a game-high 18 points on 8-14 shooting, while also leading the Peacocks with four assists. Redshirt-sophomore Abbie Riederer recorded 17 points on a very efficient 6-8 shooting while going 3-4 from beyond the arc. Junior Laney Pilcher added 12 points on 5-7 shooting, swishing both of her three-point attempts. Fifth year Kayla Bohr rounded out UIU's double digit scorers as she finished with ten points on 4-9 shooting.
 
Staley hauled in a game-high eight rebounds with three coming on the offensive end. Sophomore Kenzie Deaton also recorded three offensive boards, and she alongside Riederer each finished with seven rebounds on the day.

Upper Iowa will look to continue their unbeaten season in consecutive road games as they face Winona State on Friday, Nov. 22 at 6 p.m. and Roosevelt on Wednesday, Nov. 27 at 5:30 p.m.
