    Gritty win by Iowa that means more than a blowout in Clark’s final game at Carver-Hawkeye Arena. The Hawkeyes can score with anybody. They know that; we know that. But today, they had to really battle, be smart, value every possession and play sometimes ugly basketball.

    West Virginia played a phenomenal defensive game to disrupt Iowa’s offense and Iowa still earned the Sweet 16 berth. To really drive that point home: It’s only the second time this season Iowa has scored below 67 points. Their seven assists is a season-low and only the second time below 10. And Clark’s three assists are tied for a season low. Every one of those other instances were the loss to Kansas State.

    And a special shoutout to Gabbie Marshall, who AGAIN shifted momentum with a late-game block on the perimeter. Clark, Marshall and Kate Martin are finding ways to keep playing.

    Final: No. 1 Iowa 64, No. 8 West Virginia 54

    After some nervous early moments, the top-seeded Hawkeyes find a way to get past a gritty Mountaineers team. Caitlin Clark finished with 32 points and 8 rebounds. Iowa will face Colorado in the Sweet 16.

    We have ourselves a game. Iowa is up 2, WVU has the ball. The Hawkeyes are up 50-48.

  • Tue, March 26, 2024 at 2:59 AM GMT+1

    The Mountaineers have tied it up! There are 5 minutes left in this one.

    End 3Q: Iowa 48, West Virginia 38

    Will the Mountaineers be able to cut the deficit in the fourth?

  • Tue, March 26, 2024 at 2:45 AM GMT+1

    Iowa is 3-3 when it scores below 80 and it’s questionable if the Hawkeyes crest that today. They’ve scored 48 through three quarters thanks to eight consecutive points in the final 90 seconds.

    This is a tough matchup for Iowa and West Virginia may have been underseeded. The Mountaineers rank 21st in NET and 26th in Her Hoop Stats rating (an impressive 11th in HHS defensive ratings).
