Iowa women beat Kentucky, advance to second consecutive Sweet 16

The Iowa women's basketball team is moving on to a second consecutive Sweet 16 after the Hawkeyes defeated Kentucky on Tuesday, 86-72.

Freshman Caitlin Clark led the Hawkeyes with a 35-point performance, adding seven rebounds and six assists. Junior Monika Czinano and sophomore McKenna Warnock added double-digit scoring efforts in the win.
