The Iowa women’s basketball team could be in for an historic season. The Hawkeyes scored a major victory earlier this week over a top-ten Virginia Tech team that made the Final Four last year, a significant victory that shows Iowa’s ability to defeat opponents with elite size and post presence even with the departure of star center Monika Czinano to the professional ranks. After Sunday’s win over UNI and losses by UConn and LSU this week, the Hawkeyes will likely be ranked as the number one team in the country this week, an honor which may be official by the time this article runs.
