Iowa women’s basketball holds in March Madness bracketology ahead of Big Ten Tournament
The Iowa Hawkeyes women’s basketball team put together a spectacular stretch run this season to take themselves from a team once on the NCAA Tournament bubble playing in the play-in game to now being a lock that is awaiting their seeding and destination.
The job by Jan Jensen should not go unnoticed as she corrected things and got this team on the right path, which was capitalized by a Senior Day win over the Wisconsin Badgers in the regular season finale to hit the 20-win mark.
With the Big Ten Tournament just days away, here is a look at the latest bracketology before postseason play gets underway.
