After dropping 44 points in a game against the Virginia Tech Hokies, the Iowa Hawkeyes faced a huge upset in game four of the 2023-24 season. The Hawkeyes lost to the Wildcats and this match had been said to be the worst shooting night of Caitlin Clark’s basketball career. Clark made only 9 baskets after attempting 32 shots. 

However, the Iowa star didn’t let this get to her and only came back stronger. In their recent match against the Drake Bulldogs, Clark defied all the odds and dropped 35 points, helping her team win their fourth match of the season. 

Caitlin Clark’s stellar performance

The Hawkeyes faced off against one of the best teams in the leagues, the Bulldogs. The Drake’s, so far, had one of the most impressive runs in this season as they won all three matches they played. But, going against the No.2 team in the league is not child’s play.

Clark and the Hawkeyes didn’t let their last match defeat define them as they made a comeback and won their fifth match of the season with a Final score of 113-90. The Iowa star, Clark sent shockwaves through the arena with her exceptional performance and made her haters shut their mouths. She dropped 35 points, secured 6 rebounds, and made 10 assists. 

“Coach Bluder challenged us when we came back to practice after the K-State game, and I thought we responded really well,” Clark said in an interview with ESPN.
