Iowa State women’s basketball coach Bill Fennelly wanted to remind his players just how close they were to the end of the season and how much was still at stake. So Fennelly grabbed a sheet of paper and wrote down the list of the Cyclones' final five opponents and included a fact about what they could accomplish with each win.

For years, the Iowa women’s basketball team has been known for their offensive firepower. The Hawkeyes still have the ability to light it up at times, but head coach Jan Jensen has structured this squad around defense after Caitlin Clark’s departure.

The Hawkeyes didn't need some absurd, out-of-body showing to upset USC. Why that gives Iowa the best chance to carry this momentum forward.

Iowa Hawkeyes women's basketball wasn't its sharpest against Rutgers, but a stifling defensive effort and Lucy Olsen unlocked a winning route.

During Iowa women's basketball's (17-7, 7-6 Big Ten) five-game winning streak, senior guard Lucy Olsen has been the driving force for the Hawkeyes as they regain their footing among the Big Ten's elite.
