Iowa State opens its own tournament tonight with a game against Wisconsin-Milwaukee. It’ll mark the Cyclones first game without sophomore guard Jake Sullivan who will be out four to six weeks after he suffered a sprained ligament in his right knee during the opening minutes of a victory over Savannah State.Cyclone coach Larry Eustachy says they have to find help in the guard court until Sullivan can return, as Sullivan has been playing 40 minutes a game.Eustachy says the guards will be tested by Wisconsin-Milwaukee and first-year coach and former Iowa assistant Bruce Pearle. He says Pearle is a disciple of Coach Tom Davis and will press all through the game.Eustachy says with the losses from last season and now the temporary loss of Sullivan, there will be some growing pains ahead.
