Vlay gets fouled by Martin so Kate Martin picks up an early personal and if you were serving play and coming up with your greatest concerns if you were Iowa it would be how you handle the size of vlay inside and Iowa had some foul trouble when they

Met Colorado a year ago part of it was trying to defend Von leay inside see the coaches for today’s action Jr Payne seeking Colorado’s fourth trip to the Elite 8 Lisa blutter seeking Iowa 6th Bon lay misses the second and Martin left alone for the [Applause] rebound see immediately Jaylen Shad has

The defensive assignment like she did a year ago on Caitlyn Clark Clark bodies right through sherro in an early bucket for Caitlyn Clark one thing that was interesting talking to Colorado and what they might do differently is Von L maybe could have had another foul called there no whistle

On stalky oh nice delivery Clark to Martin Marshall [Applause] Cck Lisa bler told us how important it is for Marshall to see one go through early she does there as sherro lays it in just to finish that thought Colorado was very steadfast on we’re not going to do anything differently defensively for Caitlyn Clark we’re going to play

Colorado defense which is most of the time just straight up manto man with help side from your teammates here is a falter lost it but a foul and the whistle will go against Miller her first Caitlyn Clark 6 feet tall Jaylen sherad 57 so Caitlyn goes

Right to the basket uses her size to get an easy look early and then just the pass from Martin to Gabby Marshall beautifully [Applause] done here’s Martin deep underneath Martin it [Applause] in it’s a huge start for Iowa to be able to get some buckets inside they

Struggled so much from three in the second round well they struggled from everywhere had their fewest field goals made in a game since 2012 and yet they were able to win that game in advance here Clark a three short and rebound Colorado Here Comes sherro sherro cups

It dishes it Miller unable to hit from three and Clark secures the rebound Iowa had just 17 made field goals in that second round win they already have three today Clark left alone lays it in and Von lay with drop coverage on the on ball screen oh Nolan

Gets out ahead and finishes on the gorgeous down Fort feed one of Colorado’s big big concerns coming into this game was transition defense and getting out to the shooters but how about that out running Iowa the other way here is Clark again giving that right side to drive dumps it to stalky

Who’s fouled by vonle on the floor and the first foul on ainet vonle you just see here vonle is just playing in the paint waiting to see what that what she can do defensively and Shan’s going to really have to fight over the screen if she doesn’t have any help from her Big here’s Clark into Marshall thought about taking another Clark will short Bon lay the rebound Colorado playing with Pace here both teams up and [Applause] down cherro will take short on a three you saw Caitlyn Clark’s hands down a little bit defensively Iowa wants sherad taking that shot she’s just 24% on the

Season from three Clark drops it Stoke he finishes nice delivery from Caitlyn Clark and that was something else Lisa bler talked about stalky getting an early bucket being important for her Von lay bodies in and finishes and stalky taking a moment to get to her [Applause]

Feet an 117 lead for Iowa in the early going just already a completely different offensive Rhythm than what you saw against West Virginia skulky as it poked out out of bounds last hit per Colorado basketball an elite passer Caitlyn Clark leads the nation in assists just looking oneway draws vanon

Leay and just drops it to stoky man post players you dream of playing with a guard like that just get your easy look one of five players since the 1999 2000 season with at least 300 assists in a season she has done it in backto back years [Applause]

Here’s shod all Pack 12 this season Miller will back it [Applause] up Miller given a lot of space unable to hit from three and Martin Flags down the rebound often running for Iowa Martin looking to take it all the way and sherro knocks it off Martin out of Downs

Colorado ball and Kate Martin mystified as to how that wasn’t off of Colorado Jaylen shr just incredible speed she’s at one end of the floor and just puts the after burners on it’s where she’s so good pokes the ball from behind was that off or late I did on that angle it

Didn’t appear so the Colorado ball here’s sherro on the attack Addison ogrady there for the initial stop they swing it here little mid-range jumper won’t go for Saddler just into the game Off the Bench Amia Sadler here’s Clark nice look and the layup is good for a Falter and Colorado turns it over on the other [Applause] end and a stalky getting a little attention after after she took that shot what a pass I mean just incredible splitting the defense and she knows how to get it where you’re going never go passing the ball where you were the

Range is what draws you in and has drawn in the nation because we’ve never seen it before in the women’s game but her passing is also just Exquisite and that’s a travel on Kate Martin as Sheron again a huge Factor defensively that’s three early turnovers from [Applause] Iowa Chiron a premier Defender and talked about as she knows even though she is an introvert she has learned this season that her team feeds off her energy so she needs to sometimes bring a little more than otherwise would here’s fre to foran a big time threat from three

Season record for three pointers made on March 8th and on March 25th set the women’s division one single season scoring record and she already has four assists in this first quarter I mean her eyes are all always up Tong out assessing the situation and just again

The get ahead pass from the other side of midcourt leading to this N1 opportunity for a falter I mentioned it earlier Rebecca but worth mentioning again when we were talking with Caitlyn yesterday about the pressure both she Gabby Marshall and Kate Martin talked about feeling it big

Time in those games in Iowa City not wanting to lose in their home floor and they hope they just might play more freely here in Albany which they felt they did last year once they got to Seattle for the Regionals Caitlyn mention it’s the most fun time of year

To play basketball she looks like she’s having fun so far in this one here is Clark Clark stops looking for some help finds it in Marshall here’s Clark around two screens Clark not finding much space dumps it underneath the skull sty gets blocked and 4.6 on the shot clock for

Iowa arinet vonle back in for Colorado as Kylie febok comes into the game for Iowa [Applause] Stalky wasn’t quite ready for it a falter with three to shoot might have to get it a stalky they didn’t have time for that shot clock violation as Iowa needed a falter to just take that shot hey for the fourth straight year every NCAA Women’s Championship game is on the networks of

Off the drive it’s important for her to stay out of foul trouble D Clark telling as she feels stalky is the best transition big in the country Von leay gets inside of stalky and finishes vlay is Unstoppable when she gets positioned like that around the rim here’s Clark with Iowa swiftly up the

Floor Clark being hawked by w a Clark able to finish she’s done a nice job navigating when to look for threes and when to dribble penetrate that three won’t go rebound a falter up ahead to Clark Clark with space look out back iron no and it tilts that about BS to

Colorado citl Clark has done a nice job probing and getting into the paint here just curling around WETA getting inside and finishing and you don’t mind her taking that logo bomb after you’ve just scored a basket and gotten a stop on the other end six points three rebounds four

Assists in this opening quarter for Clark who has scored or assisted on 14 of Iowa 17 Iowa in a zone two three right now Now here’s sherro back in being guarded by Marshall peleta into the corner that three for Smith Off the Mark Clark on the rejection and the next one is a foul Clark did not put a body on initially that allowed the offensive rebound and then the second swipe caught

Board and Nolan hits the second kayln Clark brought up unprompted to us how significant of an addition she thought mattye Nolan was for this Colorado team a transfer from Michigan who has tournament experience here’s Clark around the stalky screen Marshall attacks can’t finish stalky has it knocked out of bounds it’ll stay here

As it last hit Colorado fascinated sometimes when Caitlyn Clark comes off a screen and she points because she knows her teammate should go even if her teammate hasn’t already gone there Clark to inbound here gets it into stalky gets it right back Clark forcing her way kicks it out

That three no good for feach and the rebound secured by Sarah Rose Smith for Colorado shro just drops it out of bounds and Colorado gives it back Jr pained on such a wonderful job with this Colorado program now in her eighth year as head coach they’ve won 20 plus games in three straight

Seasons trying to go to the Elite 8 as a program for the first time since 2002 Whitaker in now for Von Le with a fast-paced game J Payne doing a good job making sure her bigs are fresh Colorado and back to- back sweet 16s for the first time since

2003 here’s Clark around the screen from stalky bounces to her stalky can’t finish through the contest from Whitaker here’s sherro all the way in lays it home Clark had to be careful already with one foul and a nice response here from Colorado after Iowa came out of the gates hot in this game

Clark to the corner Marshall’s three won’t go rebound [Applause] Smith sherro FPS it up and off rebound a falter for Iowa Clark looking to take it off the dribble to the corner Martin [Applause] Conect fifth assist of the quarter for Clark Martin drills the three she shot it at 38% this season 41 last season had a 14-second difference game in shot clock Smith will pull up can’t get it to go and a foul here against Colorado Caitlyn Park’s dribble penetration brings her inside she could easily take a shot here she realizes she’s drawn the defense sends it to the grad student Kate Martin to hit the open look from the corner this is an Iowa team that did not make outside of Caitlyn’s Clark’s made threes in the

Second round not a single player made of three and in this first quarter Marshall as well as Martin have each hit a three shot clock turned off six-point Iowa lead Clark bounces needs help finds stalky what a pass and stalky lays it in a delectable dime from citlink Park to finish the [Applause]

First Caitlyn Clark already with six assists here in the first quarter sometimes sees what no one else does stalky gathers finishes is under to see if the ball was releas before exploration of time we’ll be back after this message and a word from our ABC stations the NCAA Women’s Championship

Presented by Capital One on ABC is brought to you by Coke Zero sugar is it the best Coke ever well try and decide getting ready to start the second quarter in Al that basket did count so Iowa a 2214 lead over Colorado and moments ago Holly Roll caught up with

Buffalo’s head coach Jr pain well coach we’ve talked about your extensive game plan for Caitlyn Clark but right now it’s her assisting that’s causing problems how do you do balls scoring assisting yeah I mean that was the hardest thing about her is that she’s one has the best Court Vision in

America so we just need to make sure that we can see man and ball because we’re playing too high we’re getting back cut make sure we’re playing bigger in the Gap so that maybe we get a touch on the ball Marinette your leading scorer how does this transition and Pace

Impact her ability to get in this game yeah she actually loves to transition yeah so if we can get her going in transition along with the rest of us it’s good for us thank you so much thank you Holly let’s take a look at fueling the Run brought to you by

Wendy’s just getting out in transition the vision of Caitlyn Clark we’ve been talking about it through the course of her career in particular the get ahead passes gets people in stride the bounce pass to Hannah stoki just threading the needle through through the defense leading telling her players where to go

You saw it right there with stalky go she knows to cut and then Caitlyn delivers absolutely spectacular kayln Clark her assists in transition this season 42% of her assists in transition 46 of them before half court 17 just as she steps over half court before half

Court get ahead yeah that’s a get ahead yes thank you for the breakdown well no for people at home cuz I said it was a sincere than okay you’re welcome falter Clark Martin stalky and Marshall start the quarter for Iowa Iowa is still awaiting the return of Molly

Davis who have been a key ingredient all season but a falter is slid into the starting lineup nicely here’s Clark give you the Colorado lineup in a moment here’s Martin cutting extra feed stalky misses the layup battles back for it Martin cleans it up it’s interesting that time I don’t know

If Colorado was playing a sagging man on the other four players it also looked like it could potentially be a box in one on Caitlyn CL Nolan Sadler vlay shro on the floor for Colorado along with Sarah Ro Smith as stoky collects the rebound here is Clark Clark around the stalky screen

Being hawked by sherro sherod Falls Clark dishes stoky finishes P the foul and a chance for three for Hannah stoky Caitlyn Clark’s ability to manipulate the defense and then to read a step ahead so that she can deliver to her teammates is simply Next Level here

Gets by looks turns all right I’m going to draw one and then just drop the dime to Hannah Stokey spoon feeding seven assists already for Clark Von lay picks up her second foul oh that’s huge Von leay is the advantage offensively for Colorado in this match

Up her size and strength inside and she has grown so much this season her confidence continuing to Blossom still just a junior the transfer from Arizona heads to the Ben Iowa on a 10 run extending back to the end of the first quarter here’s foran can’t get it to

Drop rebound ends up in the lap of Nolan Foreman a three won’t go cheron goes soaring in what an offensive [Applause] Rebound Foreman attacks the close out jumper won’t go either fre box out there from Kate Martin to secure it for the hawkey here’s Clark a deep three no it’s about the only thing Clark hasn’t done thus far as Whitaker travels and Colorado turns it over clark

Now 0 for four from three she’s three for three from Two and has seven assists colado 25 Mark enters this game just three made threes away from tying Diana tas’s alltime NCAA tournament record for most threes that’s in a Career Clark tried to get it into Martin knocked out of bounds by Nolan thought that might have gone off of Martin’s hands falter over to Martin nice hands by W coming up with a steal W all the way in it gets denied by Martin but the follow is

Good moud McLoud getting minutes here with the foul trouble from Von lay Colorado doing a really nice job getting on the offensive glass it’s an area they dominated when they met I a season ago they had 21 offensive rebounds in that sweet 16 matchup a number that Lisa BL kept

Bringing up to her team as they prepare for this game Clark she got [Applause] it first three of the day for Caitlyn Clark defenses try to dictate where she goes Caitlyn Clark goes where she wants to go and the crowd responds Iowa in a triangle into right

Right now wed us three rims in Colorado finally gets one to drop they have been 0 for seven from [Applause] three here’s Clark coming back for it thought about it Clark guarded by sherro wants the screen Clark gets it back to stalky just knew she’d be there

And stalky unable to hang on to it here’s weda kall weda gets fouled by Martin and that’s going to be number two on Kate [Applause] Martin Caitlyn CL just goes where she wants on the floor to the right steps out hits the three Holly there’s a

Reason Caitlyn can get to any spot she wants to on the court she knows how to use her physicality she told me herself she got a little bit of a frail build but over the course of time she has added weight she’s added about 10 lb

Since she came to Iowa a lot of strength training but one other thing that I think helps is she grew up playing against boys until she was in sixth grade they didn’t have enough competitive leagues for little girls in West de Mo Iowa where she grew up and

Her dad said we were just trying to find the highest level of competition and Caitlyn said I played against the boys a lot longer than most people but those boys to this day still text her and call her they’re super proud of her but she knows how to to use her frame and

Physicality to her Advantage we saw her family her mother father two brothers in the crowd Clark gets fouled by sherro and Clark shaking out that right arm a little bit after taking the contct she’s done a really good job of trying to probe and get touches in the

Paint and yeah shiran gets her right on the arm Rod was frustrated with that call but that’s clearly a foul good thing she has all that extra muscle Holly trod got to find out up close here’s a falter bouncing in aady picks out the repost aady can’t flip it in gets it

Back kicks it out oh Grady turns and finishes nice delivery to Grady for two and then a whistle underneath against Iowa again that was a situation where Colorado missed the presence of Von leay on the floor defending Addison O’Grady and you could tell feach was just

Insistent upon trying to find a way to get it to her yeah like here big girl no we really want you to try to score right Von Lay’s on the bench this is your time oh nice inbounds and that’s going to be number two on Caitlyn Clark

Caitlyn Clark got her second foul in the sweet 16 in the first half a year ago and spend a fair amount of time in the second quarter on the bench as a result so now Lisa bler and kin Clark talking it through the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship Elite 8 continues tonight

On TBS for more information on Tournament game times and networks go to ncaa.com so Rebecca for now clarkk is going to stay on the floor Martin went to the bench after picking up her second Marshall will come in for MCC who was in just momentarily and for the most part cait

Clarus stayed out of fou trouble but where you have to be careful is like a dribble penetration where she might flick the off hand something that’s minimal but that can be called a foul like what we saw on that made three yes here’s o Grady it’s taken away by sherro

Jayen sherro dashing dishing Foreman hit it out of [Applause] three three to four men had huge success from three in the first half when they met Iowa last season at 18 points in that first half Clark putting it in off the window pitn Clark in double figures by the way that

Fourman three set the program record for most threes in a career men’s or women’s for Colorado from free to foran as sherro then answers with a little bunny Colorado finding a better Rhythm offensively here over the last few possessions oh Gabby Marshall was wide open bark did not see her but will take

The layup herself I think running down the floor Gabby was telling her that she was open the last time 13 points for Clark seven assists the reigning National Player of the Year who has set the basketball world on [Applause] Fire here’s sherro kicking it out that three is short from weda and the rebound of falter trod got the favorable switch I thought she might try to drive inside on the big feach putting it on the deck trying to get an angle could not it’ll stay here nice job defensively by Frida

Foreman Iowa 10-point lead in a big first half thus far from Caitlyn Clark Caitlyn Clark already 13 points seven assists on the day just assessing the situation finding open teammates and yeah scoring when she has a chance as well all right we look forward to that

Ladies and now for today’s need to know brought to you by Dick Sporting Goods how about Jin USC against Baylor coming up 5:30 Eastern on ESPN and then paig Beckers who’s just just been ridiculous of late and Yukon taking on a really good Duke team that’s had a great start to this

Tournament freshman ashon shade is coming off a really solid second round performance and then the Ivy the Brad transfers alongside Juju wkins have been Stellar a falter great footwork and Sydney a falter finishes she has really done a great job sliding into the starting lineup for Iowa Molly Davis

Down attack Caitlyn Clark she’s got two fouls just take it at her see if he can pick up a cheap third Whitaker no there you go look out Caitlyn in the middle of that Miss at three Off the Mark mty Nolan unable to hit a 12-point

Iowa lead you wonder too Rebecca if this gets to a certain moment with a certain lead at the end this quarter if Clark might end up on the bench as Clark lays it in and she’s lucky she did not get called for an offensive foul there using

The left arm to create space it would have been number three Clark trying to urge on the Iowa supporters behind their bench that jumper is good for Saddler how about Iowa 17 field goals already in the this first half they had 177 total in their second round win

Stalky to the corner a falter attacks the close out and gets the whistle Sydney aalter will go to the line as we send things over to Holly Ro Jaylen sh getting ready to check back in for Colorado she is such a Difference Maker for them so disruptive but what I want

To share with you is just how smart she is she has graduated with a bachelor’s degree in sociology in 3 years got a master’s degree in organizational leadership sh in 2023 and is now working on her second master’s degree in criminal justice she has a 3.82 GPA and you see her intelligence

Everywhere she is on the court she’s thinking the game sharing with her teammates uh just one of the most remarkable young ladies we’ve ever seen in this game 57 one of the smallest on the court but one of the biggest impacts every time she steps on with the demands

On a student athlete’s time it is hard enough to graduate in 4 years for her to get her undergrad in three and then go for multiple graduate degrees impressive incredible and really enjoy getting a chance to meet with her yesterday as a falter hits both free throws 14-point

Iowa Edge the winner of this game will play LSU Monday night 7 Eastern on [Applause] ESPN Clark goes to the bench with those two fouls as foureman rings in a three and so we’ll we’ll see how Iowa handles these minutes with Clark on the bench they’ve had Martin on the bench for an

Extended time with two fouls here’s skulky musling inside gets it back and gets Fouled McLoud whistled for the personal freed to Foreman so capable from hitting from the perimeter here that’s tough when you are retreating and stepping back quickly gathers and hits the long one it was so great talking with Frey yesterday about her roots and coming from Denmark and talking about

Her parents staying up late for all of her games and then going to work the next day cuz they want to watch them live talking about the gym she played in at Denmark the most fan she’ ever played in front of was 3000 and that was a

National team game you said most of her games over there were just youth basketball teams and relatives and Friends of people playing and that was it those were the out she played in front of and she has thrived at Colorado parents do what they need to do to watch their children [Applause] Play that layup is good again Clark had to be careful with those two fouls her back in Oh What A Time Clark on the money to a falter for two that’s eight assists in this first half for Caitlyn [Applause] Clark Sadler gives it up gets it back here’s sherro for in not that time rebound flag down trapped in the corner McLoud throws it away febok got it to Marshall who then had it poked from behind by McLoud sherro crosscourt wer shovels Foreman needing help 115 to go in this first half

Out and Matty Nolan in for Colorado and now Iowa will check out Caitlyn Clark with under a minute to go in this second quarter Iowa really able to manage well allowing Caitlyn Clark to play even with those two fouls and stalky hits a pair stalky up

To 10 points and Iowa has matched its largest lead it’s 14 Sadler’s jumper won’t go good work inside McLoud couldn’t finish and then a foul on weda who was battling with stalky [Applause] underneath and Iowa’s in the B so Caitlin Clark was going to check in for the offensive possession but then

Recognized that Iowa was in the bonus so free throws here for staly and she scampered right back to the bench if I’m Iowa though I don’t temp fate even these last 46 seconds if it wasn’t free throws I still wouldn’t have put it back in they’ve been able to survive with Martin

On the bench for most of this second quarter as well with her two [Applause] fouls both Martin Clark and Marshall talked to us yesterday about pouring into stalky with positive affirmations talking about she needs to be built up after she struggled in that second round against West Virginia with some

Fundamental things that she usually does so easily and ston has responded here 11 points in this first [Applause] half Sadler off to McLoud 16sec Difference game in shot clock Sadler can’t lay it in rebound knocked away from a falter Nolan’s three Off the Mark another offens of rebound Sadler lays that one

In great activity from Tama Sadler to win the bucket for Colorado 11 offensive rebounds now for Colorado shot clock turned off feach lost it w has it and that will do it for the first half Caitlyn Clark puts up 15 points and eight assists and Iowa a 13-point lead at the half with a trip to the elite eight against LSU on the line and Holly standing by with

Caitlyn Caitlyn eight assists in the first half that’s high even for you how were you getting your teammates so involved early I think that’s the key to the game when we have multiple people in double Figures were really good I thought our ball screen offense was

Really good being able to work that um they’re flooding so being able to hit Hanah on the roll but I thought we got out in transition I think our defense seems a little bit be be a little better in transition though you and Lisa bler have this interesting con conversation

You get the two fouls how do you talk your way into staying in that half and then living up to it not picking up the third yeah I think it’s trust I think it’s just you know being her point guard for four years she can trust me with

That and obviously they made some good Subs to get me out on defense and not give up give up fouls but uh you know Kate’s in foul trouble too so I think it’s going to be key down the stretch You’ got to keep your arms out and not

Foul thank you thanks all right Kaitlin Clark with 15 points eight assist assist Iowa 13-point lead at the half a date with LSU on the line for Iowa and Colorado a trip to the elite a up for grabs as we send things over to the studio to the dove halftime report let’s

Take a look at our game track brought to you by Invesco QQQ Clark responsible for 67% of the team scoring in that first half first time this season that Clark has had 15 points eight assists and no turnovers in a half but also navigating with two fouls remember on the line to

Today is a trip to the Elite 8 to face LSU LSU used a 14-2 run to close out UCLA after the Bruins had a three-point lead with 246 to go in the fourth quarter and the fic Champs will play the winner of this game Monday night 7 Eastern on

ESPN tomorrow South Carolina undefeated South Carolina will take on Oregon state in the other Elite eight matchup that happens here in Albany that game at one Eastern on ABC important to note as see we see Quay Miller back on the floor she played very limited minutes in the first half only

Five because of a couple of fouls she certainly has a size advantage on Kate Martin inside Martin playing with two fouls as well Von lay back in was limited under 8 minutes in that first half with her two personals and Marshall Begins the second half with a steal Iowa was in a manto

Man Colorado trying to get it inside Clark bounces low Martin gets denied by Von lay immediately seeing Von Le’s impact here’s Von lay trying to flag it down able to save it to formid Colorado three for 14 from three in that first half Nolan gives it up stalky comes up with a

Steal here is Clark Clark oh my goodness what a pass for the bucket and the foul Caitlyn Clark drops it perfectly in the lap of a falter who has a chance for three and a falter going to take a minute to get up after that tumble Ryan

Not only the perfect placement on the pass the velocity on it to get it through the Defenders just if it’s an inch to the left or right that doesn’t make it through her passing today has just been incredible as a falter gets a nice hand getting up afterwards one

Shot you couple her passing with her scoring she is the best offensive player in at least the last three decades since I’ve been watching or playing this game a 5135 Iowa lead a falter having another big game she has 12 points is five of five from the floor here’s Nolan’s three missed it

Long sherro what an effort to get to that rebound for Colorado Foreman hesitated in and out and Clark grabs the board Martin did a good job on the box out there’s Clark behind the back draws two finds Martin her three is [Applause] good time out Colorado manipulating the defense reading the defense delivering the offense Kate Martin says yeah I’ll take this perfectly placed dime and give you three a 5435 Iowa lead over Colorado with 845 to go in the third quarter Caitlyn Clark 15 points 10 assists four rebounds Rebecca something struck me

When we were at shoot around yesterday for Iowa and seeing Caitlyn CL directing traffic with her teammates in a way where she was trying to help them to see what she was thinking with the game and it reminded me of two players we’ve seen at the pro level and the way they guide

And teach their teammates in shoot around subd and Candice Parker two players who had a shoot around are constantly teaching their teammates and not afraid to interject in a productive way that’s the kind of command Caitlyn has know how to use their voice and are willing to do it way Miller in the

Corner knocks down the three nice play out of the timeout from Jr [Applause] pay stalky off to Martin here’s Clark launching way short and Miller the rebound Clark Just One of six from three winner of this game meets LSU Monday night 7 Eastern on ESPN here’s Nolan

Dumping it to sherro sherro Hops inside can’t finish and Stony the rebound really nice movement and ball sharing though on that possession for Colorado Clark sending away Marshall waiting for the screen from Martin and stalky gets it back to stalky St rumaging inside couldn’t finish around vonle here’s Sherro jump it down Von lay has the size and the skill to finish plus the F no foul but Von Le able to finish through the contact of stalky sty stalky took one in the gut early in the game that time to the face but yeah it’s just incidental contact post play physical

Post Play here’s Clark flashing open driving it instead working through sherro for the two and we have seen in this game Caitlyn Clark consistently able to get to the rim on her drives Clark now swipes it away here is Clark in transition always dangerous Clark working behind stalky and lays it in

19 points for Caitlyn [Applause] Clark she is seven of seven in the paint Von L can’t finish look like stalky maybe got away with a foul on vonle and that’s what Matty Nolan is contesting now as Clark then draws the foul and grabs it her left Arm Yeah I think you get the body foul first before the little push off at the end you’re talking with Iowa they had such great respect for West Virginia the defense they played the amount of talented individual Defenders they were able to throw at Caitlyn Clark Clark doesn’t take the corner three will drive

It shovel it o Grady no and it stays here doesn’t play a lot of Zone but here we see a 131 trapping quarter Court Zone and they had a ton of success in this in their loss to Utah able able to come back huge in the fourth quarter by

Turning Utah over interesting to see here how Iowa handles it Brady is trying to give it back to Clark it’ll stay here I always love how swiftly you pick up all different zones it’s not just a Zone it’s a 131 traffic Zone Clark finds Martin can’t

Hit and Von leay on the floor to pick up the rebound here’s sherro sherro slices in and gets the whistle against Gabby Marshall that’ll be number two one on Marshall here we go two shots here we go play [Applause] Jay charj is one of three players in school history with at least 1,000

Career points and 600 career [Applause] assists this is the first say for the fourth straight year every NCAA Women’s Championship game is on the networks of ESPN for more information go to ncaa.com your home for all 90 NCAA championships gerod it’s the second free throw Oh sherro so quick getting in there and nearly coming up with a steal and that’s why they can be so deadly in a trapping Zone because sherro is so lightning quick and can get there to trap out to Clark Clark side stepping three won’t be taken Marshall has her

Pass knocked away here comes for Great lead feed and Chiron lays it [Applause] in nice job by Foreman coming up with a steel and making a great pass across her body to sherro Clark no and Von lay the rebound 0 for three Iowa now against this quarter Court

Zone feels like you’re maybe a Colorado bucket away from an Iowa timeout sherod spinning dishing Von lay lays it [Applause] in and the lead is 13 for [Applause] Iowa hea bler calling out a play against this Zone Marshall mid-range won’t go Mill of the board Here Comes Colorado

Sherro prancing inside and it’s going to be a charge a a charge on sherro is taken negating the Bucket fear boach taking the contact and deer explaining to Jaylen shuran let’s See owning the real estate before shurod got there and a turnover for Colorado meanwhile Iowa has watched Colorado find a little bit of a rhythm here over the last few minutes of this third and Iowa’s had some trouble against that Colorado Zone yeah it’s a two free extended Zone and they’ve done an outstanding job trapping out of it here skulky surrounded Martin looking to

Redirect gets it to Clark it’s really sped Iowa up though in their quarter Court offense Martin hits the mid-range 11th assist for Clark Martin Clark a falter and stoky all in double figure scoring well in it’s hisone you talked about Rebecca being very successful in Colorado’s comeback win against Utah

Earlier this year it was a comeback loss but they still came back and lost by one I mean this is a Colorado Team B her Synergy only plays Zone 7% of the time but it is disruptive and it is effective and it helps them come back

131 now Clark tried to fire it into traffic and that’s the first turnover on the day for Caitlyn Clark as we send things over to Holly R Lisa bler in that last timeout gave her team a bunch of suggestions against this Zone that seems to really disrupted

The Iowa offense she talked to them about ball fakes getting into the gaps of that zone and driving the basketball more and then she said there’s a lot of space when they are spread out like that we’ve got to run our Circle reverse the ball and get that zone moving weda

Probably had a little more time thank you Ali than she realized there with the shot clock remember this is a very heavy Iowa crowd so they acted like the shot clock was already expiring she had about four left on it Martin there’s a tie up the possession arrow belongs to Iowa

What was interesting before the media timeout is a two three Zone they come out of the timeout Iowa has talked about how to attack it now they’re in the 1 through1 but it’s been destructive and even when Iowa’s gotten shots I felt like they’ve been a little rushed and

It’s helped increase the pace for Colorado and get out and transition and just play a speed that they want to play Clark in the corner connects on a three second three of the day for Clark she has 22 points and Von lay fouled on the floor by

Stalky second foul on wi this third just one way to bust the Zone give it to CIT Clark in the corner qu Miller is right there her hand is up but Kaitlin Clark has shown throughout her career it doesn’t matter how closely guarded she is she can drain from Deep 20 plus

Points in 46 straight games into Miller Miller unable to finish the first time does the [Applause] second here’s Clark as the dribble knocked away here comes the Trap passes out of it Martin drives it leaning doesn’t get the roll Miller the board and a whistle against

Iowa and it will go on stalky that is her third sty take a look at today’s star stories brought to you by Honda Caitlyn Clark 22 points six rebounds 11 assists she’s a very efficient 10 for 16 from the floor meanwhile Kate Martin who had to sit a long time in that first

Half with two fouls still 12 points and five boards we’ve seen enough Stars today to fit into my Honda Odyssey ban you really know how to make the sponsors [Applause] happy here’s Miller can’t finish rebound Martin Clark eyes up here’s Clark Wheeling back will fire and Hit Clark up to 25 points that three three no good Clark just tied Diana terasi for the most threes in a career in NCAA tournament games the logo no Martin Soares in keeps it alive and then taken away by Sadler Sadler having it nipped at and it’s knocked out of bounds last touch Di he coming down feeling a little physicality and again Miller right in her face and Caitlyn drains it how about this Rebecca since 2000 there have been 10 NCA tournament games to make it 11 of 25 points and 10 assists and Caitlyn Clark has accounted for five of

Them oh what a dime and a falter lays it In how a falter 15 points on six of six [Applause] shooting Colorado does not have a player in double figures and Iowa has four and one of the reasons is because Caitlyn Clark is just spoon feeding her teammates 12 assist for Clark who does not check out but just gets a little

Swig of water and one key for Clark just one turnover in this game she could get a triple double here as well she’s got six boards on the day you mentioned it before Caitlyn talking with us at length yesterday said she has felt the weight of the world on her shoulders to perform

But she said these are the most fun games to play in and that’s really what’s been her rest bit away from De in with the expectations that have come with the phenomenon that is Caitlyn Clark what’s interesting is that she’s felt the weight and still been able to perform yes here’s

Clark got caught in the air and threw it away and then mccab comes right back with a steal you see AJ Eder getting some minutes for the first time today claric open in the corner fear boach didn’t see her at first now Clark finds Eder five to

Shoot and a 3 second violation against Iowa Lisa told us we might see Eder today and she’s a player she did not play in the second round she did not play in the Big 10 championship game but Lisa bler says she has a toughness about her Earth felt like she could use her

Here in this one Clark checks out for the final 21 seconds of this third unless they get the ball back I well come back in right Colorado can hold for a final shot [Applause] Here 5 seconds left and it’s out of bounds stays here with Colorado 3.5 seconds remaining in this third sherro gets it into Nolan or three short and that’ll do it for the third quarter Iowa’s lead is 21 Holly chats with Lisa bler when we come back the NCAA Women’s Championship on

ABC is presented by Capital One what’s in your wallet well she certainly has been having fun today in Albany 25 points 12 assists six rebounds and a 21-point Iowa lead as we get ready to start the fourth quarter and moments ago Holly row caught up with Caitlyn’s head coach Lisa

Bler coach blutter they went to the Zone a couple of different versions of Zone how do you feel like your team adjusted in those moment moment you know it took us a little bit to adjust and I don’t want us to take hard ones at this point

I want us to work the ball against the zone to get that high percentage shot but I thought some of our passing to begin this quarter was amazing you see Caitlyn Clark make these kind of passes all the time they for moments you’re just sitting over there like what what

It’s just amazing I mean how she finds people in transition she’s just unbelievable how do you close out the fourth quarter with a focused approach with possessions patience on possessions we want to use the talk to our advantage box out every opportunity we can thanks coach thanks Holly all right hall it’s

Now time for a Capital One rewarding performance it’s rewarding watching unselfish people assist the basketball Caitlyn Clark eyes always up just dropping dimes beautiful one right there and then simple just over the top finding your teammate right when she can do something with it and it’s been

Beautiful get ahead pass after get ahead pass here today that was a tough one two Defenders coming at you and still able to find Kate Martin right in her shooting pocket send things back to Holly Ro well I talked to Caitlyn’s dad Brent about her Elite passing and her

Vision and he said it’s always been this way since she was a little kid she could just see things happen before they were going to happen it’s the anticipation when I was covering Joe burrow at LSU they would always talk about his Elite processing speed and as you’re seeing

This passing it’s that she’s anticipating but then processing what’s about to happen with such speed the defense can’t react just a skill you can’t teach in Caitlyn Clark with this passing yeah and it’s one of the things Holly that excites me about her at the next

Level in terms of the teammates she is going to be surrounded by how about her getting into the post to Aaliyah Boston I mean that combination is going to be incredible Clark whips it inside right on Q gets it back lowo three short stalky the rebound nice

Patience and for those who don’t know Indiana the Indiana Fever have the first pick of the WNBA draft as Marshall knocks in at three and I think it’s a safe bet to say we know who they’re taking with number one I think [Applause] so here’s sherro sherro turns the corner

Had a layup gave it up instead head and Colorado ends up fruitless on the interior yeah Shad did a really good job attacking the Zone but she did have a open look up on the bucket Marshall thought about launching and then throws it away winner of this game advances to the

Elite 8 for a meeting with LSU Monday night as Foreman it’ss her third three of the day three to foran who became Colorado’s all-time leader in three-pointers made earlier in this game [Applause] a Falter here’s Marshall giving it back to Clark into the corner Martin in and out that’s the area that’s going to be open against this zone is in one of the deep corners and Lisa bler is going to take a timeout after the offensive rebound from

Stalky we’ll step aside 809 to go in the fourth Iowa 21-point in all right L we are looking forward to that one on ESPN meanwhile Caitlyn Clark has been completely in control today Iowa 21-point lead in this sweet 16 matchup with Colorado and Clark 65 games with 25 five and five leading

All active players by far Fair has 16 and is second on the list I mean what other numbers can we use to illustrate how incredible this young woman’s career has been 13 assists today to go with 25 points six rebounds here’s Martin bouncing to stalky stalky unable to finish gets it

Back Marshall’s three you [Applause] [Applause] bet Gabby Marshall is so important to Iowa’s success in particular in the mcaa tournament and championship games in the Big 10 conference it’s got to be huge for her confidence to see the ball go in like it has today always ask to guard the best perimeter player does that relentlessly

Regardless whether or not shots are going in but it’s such a huge boom to their offense when she is hitting threes here’s skulky in the corner try to get it into Clark and kicked that out of bounds 34 AJ Ed 49 Edinger will get some minutes here in for

Stalky here’s Martin in a crowd gets fouled and Kate Martin will shoot too kend that’s her third W picks up the personal the two number Martin Martin kind of shaking out that right arm a little bit afterwards Martin Marshall and Clark know whenever they lose or win a title

That will be it for those three in their Collegiate careers as we send things over to Holly well Gabby Marshall has already got some really exciting news her goal for her life is to become an occupational therapist and she has just gotten in as a graduate student to the

North Carolina master’s program for occupational therapy she said she went to an appointment with her little brother Luke when he was a kid and he had some sensory issues she was so blown away by the care and love that the doctors gave in the help that he

Received she vowed that she would grow up and become one one day so Gaby’s basketball career will end with this tournament but her goals are still alive with her future in that master’s program love that Holly you saw her father and brother here at the game in the corner Marshall on [Applause] Q the lead is swell to 27 as Iowa has just been on a completely different plane offensively than what we saw in the second round against West Virginia Marshall has nine of the last 11 Iowa points Clark great feed Eder lays it in took him a couple of possessions but

Iowa has certainly figured out how to attack the Zone Offa Clark applauding the assist now 14 for Caitlyn Clark he goes by Papa Clark now well usually goes by Brent but you know every once in a while that’s his children’s book name Clark can’t lay it in takes a hard tumble and it’s out of bounds to [Applause] Iowa Gabby Marshall on the day four of five from three stepping into it confidently she didn’t score in the second round game big smile here Caitlyn Clark now knows how important Marshall and her confidence from Deep R Miller Colorado back in theand now the steel foran gets fouled by

There Nolan buries the three lead is 20 for Iowa perhaps Lisa blutter thinking she just wants to see a couple more buckets before she feels totally comfortable over there Clark tried to get it to Martin knocked out of bounds by Miller there’s a chance she also wanted to give Gabby

Marshall the exit so she could get the Ovation that she got from the crowd you could probably do that without having saying Clark back in fair [Applause] enough here’s Clark Clark lays it in 29 for Caitlyn Clark she’s 13 of 22 from the floor bark the fly by sherro a three

  1. I would like to see women's dunk like Magic,Jordan, Dr.Jay,Shack, and many more of the males that dunk in Men's Basketball I think it would be fun to watch as an experience women's Basketball College or Pro Ball.

  2. Terrible officiating. Clearly the angry feminists who run the women's NCAA tournament have an agenda to keep Iowa out of the Championship game again. This is why American sports fans can't support the WNBA. We cant stand angry feminist crybabies.
