That would be #53. Up until last year the Iowa WBB media guide included a list of all time jersey numbers. There were two until this past season when McKenna Warnock became the first ever to wear #14. #13, #15 and #55 have only been worn once each.

Interesting. Kathy Thomas is listed in the media guide as the only one to wear #13. I presume that is because Shante Jones left after a year and a half.
Hmmm, the name Kathy Thomas did not ring a bell, but after looking up on the hawkeyesports site, the face actually looked familiar to me.
Kathryn Thomas was a JC transfer, played one year somewhere in Kansas then backed up Logic for a season. Shante Jones didn't play all that much & had some disciplinary issues which lead to her departure/transfer.
The 2016 - 2017 roster will give a good start if we want to fill the list in numerical order (I cheated, I looked up the wiki). Anyway, I'll add the next one:
#1 Tomi Taiwo
#2 Ally Disterhoft
To be honest, I am not good with player’s numbers, especially going back even just a few years so I don’t know how far along this will get without more participation. Still would be interesting to see which numbers were most worn by what players.
#3 Makenzie Meyer, Claire Till
I'll add a recent one that I actually remember:
#1 Tomi Taiwo
#2 Ally Disterhoft
#3 Makenzie Meyer, Claire Till
#4 Chase Coley
#1 Tomi Taiwo
#2 Ally Disterhoft
#3 Makenzie Meyer, Claire Till
#4 Chase Coley
In view of the recent article about Shateah Wetering, your comments here seem prophetic. The coaches originally planned to use her as a ‘4’ but now believe she is a ‘3’. I think that puts her most directly in competition with Kate who is decisively better defensively. Also, since her half court offensive skills are so raw, redshirting her would make sense, but if she can refine them enough to elevate herself into the top eight, then of course she plays. There will be a battle for sure at that position.

I may have missed this somewhere along the line, but are we going for all-time Iowa numbers, or just players under Bluder? Because Stringer had some some of our all-time players. So if the number game is just Bluder recruits, that’s fine, but if not...Tan wore #50. I loved watching WBB under Stringer!
I first became a fan of the Iowa women’s basketball when C Vivian Stringer was HC. She did have some of the best players of all-time at Iowa. I don’t remember many names although Nicole Tunsil and Tiffany Gooden do come to mind. I never paid much attention to the numbers though. It would be great if we could get a complete all-time list of all players and their numbers. I don’t know if that’s a realistic ambition. I won’t be much further help with that either.
I compiled the vast majority of the list above from the rosters that I found online. Unfortunately, I was not able to find anything older than 2005. That includes some of Lisa’s early teams. Of those, I remember Jennie Lillis, Randi Petersen, Cara Consuegra, Jenna Armstrong, April Calhoun, Crystal Smith and Stacy Freese, but there are certainly others that I have forgotten, and alas, I never really knew their numbers.

Caitlyn Clark has stated she will wear 22 also. It's been a pretty good number so far getting better with each player to wear it.
Interesting. Did she wear 22 in high school? Also, did Doyle wear 22 in high school? Iowa will have 12 consecutive years of great play from #22.
Edit: My mistake, I thought Doyle came in right after Logic graduated. There was a one-year gap, in the 2015-2016 season.
Some other players from the 2000-2001 team, Coach Bluder's first at Iowa, in addition to #10 Lindsey Meder and #5 Jerica Watson:
#1 Amber O'Brien
#2 Kristi Faulkner (redshirted, and changed number later I believe)
#12 Leah Magner
#21 Cara Consuegra
#22 Mary Berdo
#32 Natalie Chambers
#40 Tracy Schrupp
#44 Beatrice Bullock
#45 Randi Peterson
#50 Jennie Lillis
#54 Becca McCann
I have no recollection of Natalie Chambers at all. All the others I remember well. Bullock and Magner were both from Alaska and both juniors that year. I think Bullock had a young brother that was on the men's gray team. Mary Berdo was the long range bomber from Washington Iowa that came back after quitting for a year. And she wore glasses. She's the equivalent of Chris Kingsbury on the men's team, without the baggage. Becca McCann later became Mrs. Robert Gallery.
That was a very strong team that should have made the Sweet Sixteen. They were a four seed but were unable to host (wrestling tournament maybe?), and lost at fifth seed Utah in a tight second round game. Though, Iowa didn't play particularly well, and had trouble in the first round vs Oregon.

Leah Magner, the Alaskan Assassin. She was a real trooper in the or one of the last games she played at Iowa. Without looking it up I am thinking it was in the B1G Conference Championship game, and the previous game she turned her ankle and it wasn't a sure thing that she would play the next game, but she not only gutted it out, she hit a big three late to get the win .
I think Randi Peterson coached at Coe for a while before moving to a bigger school
Randi was an assistant coach at Charlotte under former Hawkeye PG Cara Consuegra after leaving Coe I believe. She is now head coach at Washington University in St. Louis a D3 school where she replaced current Illinois head coach Nancy Fahey.
Is it possible that all the gals could wear 22? It does appear to have some magic to it.
And Wendy Ausdemore was an assistant coach under Randi Peterson at Coe for a few years.

Iowa and Northwestern have zero transfers. Nebraska has 3 in minus 3 out and Penn State has 2 in minus 4 out. Wisconsin (2 in / 3 out), Maryland (2 in / 3 out), Minnesota (2 in / 2 out), MSU (3 in / 1 out), Indiana (1 in / 3 out) and OSU (4 out) all have at least four total transfers. OSU lost practically their entire freshman class.
