(Yahoo News) – In a game that lived up to the hype — a rematch of the 2023 women’s NCAA tournament championship game — only one star from a year ago could move on to the Final Four. And that is the biggest star of college basketball this season: Caitlin Clark.
For the second year in a row, Clark had a legendary Elite Eight performance, leading her No. 1 seed Iowa Hawkeyes to a 94-87 victory over defending national champion LSU, the No. 3 seed in the Albany 2 Regional.
Clark had 41 points, 12 assists and 7 rebounds, breaking even more records in what has been a record-shattering senior season. She was named the regional’s Most Outstanding Player.
But what matters most to Clark is getting another chance at a national championship, something Iowa was denied last season in a 102-85 loss to LSU. Clark will lead Iowa against UConn, the Portland 3 Regional winner, on Friday in the national semifinals.
