The Hyball is a weekly basketball column.
It was like the Final Four -- with less calories.
Or maybe more like a big ticket boxing match. Back-to-back bouts, anticipatory arena, all leading to a main event. A peak.
And it generally unfolded how we wanted. The 'good guys' (or, good gals, in the back half) went 2-0 and won their games by a combined 65 points. Easy peasy.
But it was so much more than a box score, wasn't it? It was half I'm Comin' Home and half pure coronation. Caitlin Clark's basketball began in Des Moines but didn't hit the national radar until she arrived in Iowa City. Last Saturday night, she came to unify the damn state.
