Iowa women’s basketball coach Jan Jensen outlines progress seen in Hawkeyes’ win over Northwestern
JuJu Watkins and USC women’s basketball starts up a two-game Midwest road trip on Sunday in Iowa.
No. 4 USC (19-1, 9-0 in Big Ten) travels to Iowa (14-7, 4-6) for a 1:30 p.m. ET tip-off inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena on Sunday, looking to extend its win streak to 16 straight.
Sunday’s meeting between the Trojans and Hawkeyes is the first between both programs since USC joined the Big Ten from the Pac-12 over the offseason.
Watkins leads USC in scoring at 24.9 points per game this season, and has finished with at least 20 or more points in 18 games this year. The Trojans are coming off an 82-69 win at home against Minnesota on Thursday.
Iowa appears to be back on track after dropping five straight between Jan. 5-19 with back-to-back wins against Washington and Northwestern. Leading the way for the Hawkeyes in scoring is Villanova transfer Lucy Olsen, who is averaging 15.8 points per game this season.
Sunday’s game is a celebratory one for the Hawkeyes, as they will formally retire former Iowa legend Caitlin Clark’s No. 22 jersey — just the third player in program history to receive that honor.
