A season after Iowa became the first women’s basketball program in Big Ten history to sell every ticket for every home game, the Hawkeyes repeated that feat. Despite an inconsistent year compared to its recent success, the environment Sunday was every bit as electric as what took place in Clark’s final season.

While Caitlin Clark and her past were honored Sunday at Carver-Hawkeye Arena, this unforgettable day was also about the future.

Amid the backdrop of a surprising 76-69 Iowa upset of No. 4 USC, it took almost 10 minutes to clear the floor of students who joined the Hawkeyes in a celebration. USC’s players and coaches decided to stay on their bench during the ceremony honoring Clark, which was something the Trojans had planned no matter what the outcome.

Sometimes real life is even better than the best movie script. Today, that was the case in Carver-Hawkeye Arena as the upset-minded Iowa Hawkeyes took down the No. 4 USC Trojans in front of a rowdy crowd packing the arena as Iowa legend Caitlin Clark was seeing her iconic No. 22 jersey retired and hung from the rafters.

It'll be a festive scene Sunday afternoon inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena for Caitlin Clark's jersey retirement and USC showdown. Here's what to watch.

Women’s college basketball saw exponential growth in popularity and viewership during Caitlin Clark’s career at the University of Iowa. She was a must-watch whenever the Hawkeyes played and led her team to back-to-back national championship games in the Women’s NCAA Tournament.
