With a 68-52 win over Missouri, the Iowa Hawkeyes women’s basketball team is headed to the Sweet 16.
They’ll play either NC State or Kentucky in the Sweet 16 on March 30 in Greensboro, North Carolina. It’s the seventh time in program history the Hawkeyes have advanced to the regional semifinal, with the last coming in 2015. Iowa finishes the season a perfect 16-0 in Carver Hawkeye Arena.
This is pretty cool, especially for Megan Gustafson as she gets to advance past the first weekend for the first time in her storied Iowa career. The Iowa post was at her best against the Tigers, scoring 24 points and hauling in 19 rebounds over 37 minutes.
