ALBANY, N.Y. -- Iowa fans crammed into the lower bowl after Caitlin Clark led the Hawkeyes back to the Final Four on Monday night, holding their signs and T-shirts and programs and Sharpies, all dressed in black or gold or a combination of both.

One young fan stood front and center, proudly holding up her sign: "Never Been a Sweeter Time to be a Hawkeye. Let's go Hawks!"

She is asked: "Did the game live up to the hype?"

"Yes!" she said.

For 40 minutes, Iowa and LSU showcased the best of women's basketball, a transcendent night for a sport starting to fill with transcendent nights.
