The Iowa Hawkeyes couldn’t overcome a first half buzzsaw from the LSU Tigers in a 102-85 loss in the National Title Game. Even though loss puts a frustrating end to Iowa’s season, it was an absolutely extraordinary ride from Lisa Bluder and Company.
The Hawks’ postseason run kicked off, in earnest, with Caitlin Clark’s buzzer beating three-pointer against Indiana. While the win was meaningless in the standings, it set a tone going into tournament play that Iowa - and Clark - were not to be trifled with.
The Hawks won three games in three days, again in Minneapolis to take home the Big Ten Tournament crown.
