but here is my favorite part:
There are some incredible players joining the squad next season, including five-star guard Addie Deal, a Californian with Clark-like scoring and defending abilities who turned down offers from LSU, Ohio State, Indiana, USC, UCLA and others in favor of Iowa. Another is Lucy Olsen, a junior guard whose 23.3 average points a game for Villanova last season made her the third-highest scorer in the nation behind Clark and USCs JuJu Watkins. After entering the transfer portal, Olsen settled on Iowa for her fourth and final year of collegiate play.
Still, its hard to imagine next years star as anyone other than Hannah Stuelke, the versatile forward from Cedar Rapids.
I always wanted to go to Iowa as a kid, Stuelke told the Register in 2022. Ive always lived here, grew up a Hawkeye fan. We went to a ton of games and were always watching when we couldnt make it. It was really cool to have my dreams come true.
Can't help it folks - I am a fan.
