Mad respect for Coach Bluder! CLASS ACT. Coach and her staff are doing a great job. Especially this season. GO HAWKS! 🤙🏽

So much of how this team plays has to do with the stellar job the coaching staff does with them. Lisa is such a positive influence !!!

My granddaughter in Burlington Iowa told me about the Hawkeyes. Wow, so much fun, she calls Grandpa to talk about the game. These girls are good role models.🤩😍

I'm from Philippines and I'm a solid fans of Hawkeye Iowa, only Iowa! 🇵🇭❤️🇺🇲

I couldn't believe how physical WV played, regardless awesome game and go Hawks! '99 Iowa alum!!

Agree with coach, WV may be the best defensive team they face all year. Their pressure was constant, made everything difficult. They implemented their plan perfectly but Iowa adjusted and shut them down.

Absolutely not an 8 seed. Look at USC drawing a 20-12 Kansas team as their 8 seed while we’re supposed to be the higher 2 seed getting 25-8 WVU. Credit to WVU for forcing us to play their game but I’m really encouraged by how well defensively we played denying any passes in the paint. There was one point late in the 4th quarter where WVU got an easy 2 and I thought to myself, that was their only easy 2 all night.

Why didn't WV dive to basket?

Hannah is such a kind young lady and a terrific athlete. She is a perfect fit for this team. You can tell that the team likes and respects her. When she went down hard on the one play, her teammates rushed over to check on her.

Congratulations Caitlin and the team ❤❤❤

Have been a lifelong Hawkeye fan with coaches Dan Gable & Hayden Fry. Adding coach Lisa Bluder to that list. Thanks coach!

Lisa Bluder deserves way more credit than she gets. Being the head coach of a superstar brings significant other challenges with it, and she is/has navigated that incredibly well.

I'm a born Jayhawk and I love Caitlin, she's so fun to watch and the whole team feeds off of her energy and passion. She has a bright future in the WNBA and I'll continue to be a fan. Go Hawkeyes in the rest of the tournament!!!!

There’s been some good close games. Fun to watch.

Soooo impressed with how polished and confident and articulate Caitlin is in these postgame pressers. She says all of the right things and doesn't hesitate or search for answers at all. Obviously she's had some practice at it over the years but kudos to her and whatever PR team is now around her that has maybe helped influence her positive & diplomatic responses.

You ladies are the best with the best

We love you all in Ohio. Lisa, Caitlin, Hanna and Martin! Great entertainment all season long.

Aggressive in your face defenses generate more fouls by nature. I thought Iowa, although advancing, really miss Molly Davis and her ability to penetrate and dish to the 3 point shooters. I also would have liked to see some high ball screens and rolls along with back door cuts. Want to play up close, beat 'em on backdoors.

Wvu has a great coach they will be tough for years to come

Meanwhile, at the LSU post-game press conference, they were talking about how they knew they needed to "cut the snake's head off" - whatever that means.

This was a hard fought game. Happy for the Seniors for keeping their cool and getting the job done in the moment, it was getting questionable whether they'd win their last game in Iowa City. Hannah looked completely lost out there tonight and that should be addressed. Whenever she got the ball she was going out in space and got lost.. credit to WV for that but she was careless with the ball.

I was glad to see us turn it around at halftime. The big difference is that we started being strong with the ball...on rebounds, on pivots, on passes. Hopefully, we won't forget that lesson. 2 down, 4 to go. Go Hawks!!!

Looked like Hannah received some rough attention from their defense. When she was knocked down with her right arm captured she could have been seriously injured. Making the free throws was her response, and it was crucial to the win

WV game plan succeded. It deserves some praise. Iowa is the top scoring team in the NCAA from making shots, not FTs. WV made more 3pt shots than Iowa. They deserve credit for having enough buddies to sacrifice for the cause. Iowa isn't shooting very many FTs normally As a sign is so many WVs committed more fouls than they took shots. What the rest of NCAA learned today is that Iowa will make there FTs. Even there worst FT shooter made four straight in theclutch.@@bpraise517

Me tonight at work about both teams: this game is great but it would be better if they could stay on their feet, catch the ball, look where they are passing it. Also me: tripped over the bar mat. Maybe I should keep my mouth shut. 😂 Go Hawks!!!

41 points NO RING. What a Shame

The three point shot has ruined basketball on all levels. I was all for it when it was first introduced but I was young and didn't know any better. The game was meant to be played by ones & twos One point per free throw Two points per field goal

Clark definitely in a shooting slump, but don't put her on the FT line if you're gonna play her tight.

@@Zerox_Prime Precisely. Right away I knew this was going to be a football game, as Clark got shoved in the back with the ball in her hands and in front of the ref. No call. Clark held onto the ball but allowing such an obvious foul was a bad sign. Obvious fouls was allowed continuously. It was obscene. Frankly, it reminded me of the Pistons vs the Bulls way back, when the Piston were allowed to foul MJ, Pippen and company on every play. "You can't call every foul" was literally a Chuck Daly (coach of Detroit) quote. That was WV's strategy. The refs should have cleaned it up immediately but decided to swallow the whistle way too many times.

So Coach Bluder could have been a lot harsher, to be honest, but instead she simply encouraging her to go to the rim!
