The 6-foot-2 sophomore has been the Hawkeyes’ wild-card, high-upside player all year long. We know what we will get from Caitlin Clark, Kate Martin and Gabbie Marshall night in and night out. But Stuelke is the player who scored 47 points in a game against Penn State. When she is at her best, the Hawkeyes become almost unbeatable.
While Clark (21 points, 7-for-18 shooting) and UConn’s Paige Bueckers (17 points, 7-for-17 shooting) were held below their normal stat lines, it was Stuelke’s game-high 23 points that were the difference in Friday’s 71-69 Iowa win against the 11-time national champion Huskies. With her best brand of aggressiveness, Stuelke strung together 11 third-quarter points to help Iowa rally from down 12 to force a 51-51 tie entering the decisive fourth quarter.
What got into Stuelke on Friday?
“I don’t know that I plan do to that some games, but I feel like I need to be more like that,” Stuelke said Saturday afternoon at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, about 24 hours before Sunday’s showdown with South Carolina. “I should probably be like that all the time. Sometimes something comes over me, and I just get in that mindset.”
