Caitlin Clark left no doubt that she was ready for the bright lights in the Final Four.
The Iowa star poured in 41 points and eight assists to lead the Hawkeyes past South Carolina, 77–73, lifting Iowa to its first national championship game in program history.
While the Gamecocks had the size and clear rebounding advantage (49–25), Clark’s display of offensive prowess was on full display—finishing in the paint underneath the Gamecocks’ length, nailing several patented deep three-pointers (5-of-17) as well getting her teammates in position to score in transition and in the half court.
