The Cyclones had won 12 straight before falling at West Virginia on Saturday afternoon.
Javon Small scored 12 of his 27 points in the final two minutes to lead West Virginia to a 64-57 win over No. 2 Iowa State on Saturday night, ending the Cyclones' national-best 12-game winning streak. Amani Hansberry added 12 points for the Mountaineers (13-4, 4-2 Big 12), who beat a ranked team for the fourth time this season. West Virginia fans stormed the court and joined the players in singing John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads" on a day in which the school celebrated the life of NBA great Jerry West, who died last June at age 86.
After going down early, the Spartans survived a nail-biter to remain undefeated in league play and alone at the top of the conference.
