Caitlin Clark is off to the WNBA soon, but before she goes, the reigning national player of the year has one more March Madness go-round to see if she can lead the Hawkeyes to a title.
Clark and top-seeded Iowa started the 2024 NCAA Tournament with a win, as Clark scored 27 against Holy Cross in a 91-65 victory. Then the Hawkeyes survived West Virginia, 64-65. They’re in the Albany regional and, if the bracket goes chalk, on a collision course with second-seeded UCLA to play for a spot in the Final Four. Or will it be third-seeded LSU, which beat Iowa in the national championship last season?
Last year, Clark led the Hawkeyes to their first Final Four in 30 years. After stunning top-ranked South Carolina in the semifinals, Clark & Co. lost to LSU and Most Outstanding Player Angel Reese, 102-85, in the national title matchup.
Clark’s been busy since then, becoming the top scorer in women’s and men’s Division I college basketball while hitting 181 3s (and counting) this season, an NCAA record previously held by Stephen Curry of Davidson.
As Clark continues to rewrite the record books, USA TODAY Sports is tracking all her stats during the NCAA Tournament.
