Caitlin Clark and Iowa face tough road in 2024 NCAA women's tournament
Former ESPN columnist Jemele Hill criticized the NCAA selection committee for placing the Iowa Hawkeyes in a tough bracket in the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament, potentially setting them up for a rematch with defending champions LSU before reaching the Final Four. Iowa coach Lisa Bluder acknowledged the significance of being a No. 1 seed but emphasized that it doesn't guarantee success. The team is focused on taking the tournament one week at a time, starting with their first matchup against either UT-Martin or Holy Cross.
