Iowa Women's Basketball Reaches Season Ticket Milestone

For the third consecutive season, the Iowa Hawkeyes women's basketball team has sold out of season tickets. Caitlin Clark's dynasty has left a lasting impact on the Hawkeyes' women's squad who can say they reached a milestone that surpasses the men's ticket sales.

Clark paved the way for Iowa women's basketball as part of her stellar career from 2020-24. She was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA draft, being selected by the Indiana Fever. An injury has prevented Clark from participating in the 2025 playoffs despite the Fever's involvement.

Even though Clark is no longer a Hawkeye, the 23-year-old began to build a dynasty. Iowa may not have won any championships with her around, but the Hawkeyes have now set the standard when it comes to season ticket holders. No one wants to give up their seat as Jan Jensen enters her second year as head coach.

Jensen, who enters her 26th season with the team, knows the success long before the Clark era. Iowa has made 22 postseason appearances with Jensen as part of the coaching staff. The Hawkeyes went 23-11 last season as Jensen became just the third coach in history to notch 20+ wins in her first season.
