A trio of second-half goals was the difference for Iowa who controlled the game practically from start to finish and heavily disrupted Baylor with an aggressive high-press.
This week Baylor Soccer plays two of its three remaining non-conference games. The matchups at SMU and at No. 22 Iowa are pivotal for the Bears to bolster their NCAA tournament resume before the slog of Big 12 play hits.
The Big 12 is set to play several major opponents in out-of-conference place in 2018, including a nation-leading 36.7 percent of non-conference games against fellow Power 5 opponents.
