57-34 at half... Clark needs 3 rebounds and 6 assists for the triple double. Goodman in for a couple of minutes. Don't know how much time Clark gets in the second half. Seems like we should see way more bench...

The team started slow outside of Caitlin and McKenna. Was worried we were in for another nailbiter type game with no one else on the roster able to contribute offensively. We looked like a whole different team in the 2nd quarter! Don't care if it's Wisconsin, I'm just happy to see the team playing with more confidence again.

Iowa won 102-71 over an overmatched Wisky team. I suspect that the team was quite motivated after our last loss. Czinano was 9-10 from the field after going 2-4 against NC State. McCabe going 2-3 from 3 point last was nice.

Why in Heck can't Iowa be on reg tv?
Seems like every other team in on regular
No I'm not signing up for+

ESPN has no mention of Clark's performance...not even on their NCAAW's page.

But we're suppose to listen to them on becoming a equal society. They'd literally break into coverage if this was Lebron.

Kate Martin very poor on D today: Ole or worse on at least 3 layups. How can they do that after the last game?
Caitlin turning into one of our better defensive players.

 

[Suterman]

Caitlin w/ another triple double. She is astounding.

Sorry but Clark gets moooore than her fair share of coverage from ESPN. She's one of their darlings (and rightfully so most of the time). It's just a bit cringeworthy when the headlines are about her statlines even when Iowa loses.

Now I'm with you that the women's game in general needs more coverage all around. Virginia Tech's PG also had a triple double this week against Nebraska who is a much better team than Wisconsin.

It's really starting to feel like the backup 5 position is being mismanaged. Goodman looked good today, but hasn't played in a while and played less than 5 minutes in this one. O'Grady keeps playing a few minutes only and never has time to get a rhythm. Stuelke might be the short-term answer, but again is only playing it a few minutes at the 5.

If we want the backup 5 to do anything more than fill space later in the season, the coaches are going to have to pick 1 or 2 options and stick with them. O'Grady was an asset off the bench last year, but we're not getting that same production from any option so far this year.

And then there's our fifth (yes, fifth) center off the bench -- Ediger -- with an assist, rebound, and steal in just 3 minutes of play. It's certainly a conundrum.

I didn’t watch the game today. How was our D / hustle?

I really feel like Bluder is riding the starting 5 this season, and next year we will have CC and a completely inexperienced team around her. Even against NC St when three of the starters did nothing for a vast majority of the game, they played.

Agree if the current pattern continues. I'm hopeful she's "saving" Stuelke (bringing her along slowly) for the meat of the Big10 season. There is no reason she shouldn't be playing more.
