West Virginia vs. Iowa Prediction
The Mountaineers begin this contest with a record of 25-7.
They finished 12-6 in the Big 12, which was sixth best.
West Virginia won comfortably in round one 63-53 against Princeton.
This program has made just one Sweet 16 appearance (1992).
Virginia native JJ Quinerly leads the squad with 19.9 points per game, which ranks 24th in the nation.
Sophomore Jordan Harrison has averaged 13.9 points and 5.1 assists per game.
Lauren Fields has added 9.4 points and 1.9 assists.
Iowa begins this contest with a 30-4 record.
All eyes are on the Hawkeyes tonight.
The main reason for that is Caitlin Clark.
Clark has taken college basketball over in the past year as she became the game's all-time leading scorer this year.
She is one of the best players the sport has ever seen and has her team in a position to win a National Championship.
Iowa has been red hot lately as they won the Big Ten championship and blew out Holy Cross in the Round of 64.
Clark leads the squad with 31.8 points per game and 8.9 assists.
Sophomore Hannah Stuelke has averaged 14.1 points and 6.6 rebounds.
Senior Kate Martin has averaged 13.0 points per game.
Iowa did not play their best in the Round of 64, and I expect a much better effort tonight.
Clark did not shoot well in round one, and she rarely has back-to-back poor shooting performances.
Iowa has played their best basketball at home (14-1) and will be dominant in their final home game of the season.
