The Iowa Hawkeyes will continue their pursuit of another Big Ten tournament title when they face Michigan in the conference tournament semifinals on Saturday.
The second-seeded Hawkeyes are the tournament’s highest seed remaining after Ohio State was ousted by Maryland in the quarterfinals.
In the teams earlier matchup on Feb. 15, Caitlin Clark broke the NCAA’s women’s basketball record all-time scoring record when she poured in 49 points in a 106-89 win over the Wolverines.
Clark scored 24 points with 10 rebounds and seven assists in Iowa’s 95-62 victory rout over Penn State on Friday in the quarterfinals. She missed her first 11 three-point attempts before hitting two in the fourth quarter to give her 164 3-point makes for the season, breaking Stephen Curry’s record of 162 set in his sophomore season at Davidson.
Iowa has won this tournament each of the last two years, and Clark has been named the Most Outstanding Player both times.
