Sydney Affolter added 12 points with seven rebounds and a career-high eight assists in her fifth career start, while Kate Martin tallied 13 points and six boards.

The Wolverines sank all six 3-point attempts, going on a 10-0 run before Stuelke snapped the streak with a bucket in the paint. Gabbie Marshall sunk a triple at the buzzer to bring Michigan’s lead to three going into the second quarter.
Iowa responded in the second quarter by outscoring the Wolverines, 29-17. The Hawkeyes shot 70.6 percent from the field in the half to go into the break with a 51-42 advantage. Clark tallied 19 points and 11 assists in the first half to gather her 63rd double-double in the first 15 minutes of the contest.

Iowa dominated the Wolverines in the post, outscoring Michigan 54-16 in the paint. The Hawkeyes finished with 30 assists, breaking the Big Ten Tournament single game record.

That behind the back pass on the fast break by Clark at the 803 mark was one of the passes ive ever seen, college or pro. And ive been watching basketball for 48 years.
Bro, Clark is the most complete offensive girl I’ve ever seen at any level ever. I get goosebumps with some of the plays she makes. And I’ve been playing/watching bball my entire life. She’s something else and I love it
CC22 is pretty friggen good.
These Iowa gals know what they're doin' out there. Great schemes, excellent execution, and tons of athletic talent. Real impressive.
Say what you will, but IOWA has some amazing offensive strategies 🔥! Like them or not, these women know how to execute and that's what's up. 😊❤🎉!
But they're awful on defense
Them 3 pointers in da first quarter 💪💪👏👏👏👏
How's those 3 pointers working out against Nebraska right now? 🤔
@@daniellewis5474 mind your bizz 😂😜😜
@@daniellewis5474just well enough
@@daniellewis5474that might have been a Michigan post. That's when they lit it up. Iowa did survive on the day, as you now know.
@@daniellewis5474 Ended up working pretty good. All credit to Nebraska though. Any game with them is a 50/50 shot.
Congrats iowa ❤❤❤
