Iowa Hawkeyes seeks revenge after 2023 title loss to LSU

From the first buzzer, it was evident that Iowa was hungry for the win and they did it, taking home the victory 94-87. They took the lead and managed to create a 9-point difference at 6:42 in the first quarter.

However, the Hawkeyes hit a slump as they went scoreless between 3:16 in the first quarter and 9:34 in the second. Meanwhile, LSU managed to add 10 points and took the lead from Iowa.

The Tigers tried to maintain the lead but had to give it up as the scores were tied at 39-39 at 2:34 in the second quarter. From that point onwards, Iowa went on a rampage, adding points as Hailey Van Lith failed to contain Caitlin Clark. The guard, at one point, was seen throwing her hands up in frustration as Clark continuously made 3-pointers.

After halftime, a win for Iowa seemed probable as it had a 12-point lead and did not let the Tigers catch up. Gabbie Marshall did an excellent job at containing LSU while Clark added 41 points and took seven rebounds and 12 assists. The guard made 13-of-29 shots, including 9-of-20 from behind the arc. Kate Martin added 21 points while Sydney Affolter had 16.

LSU was led by Flau'Jae Johnson, who scored 23 points and took six rebounds. Mikaylah Williams added 18 points and seven rebounds while Angel Reese finished with 17 points and 20 rebounds.

With this win, the Iowa Hawkeyes have cemented their spot in the Final Four for the second straight time. This will be Caitlin Clark's last chance to give Iowa its only championship title in program history as she will be moving to the WNBA after this season.

On April 5, the Hawkeyes will take on the winners of the UConn vs Trojans game for a spot in the finals.
