Iowa vs. Virginia Tech Game Highlights | 2023-24 ACC Women’s Basketball



No. 8 Virginia Tech fell 80-76 to No. 3 Iowa in a matchup of two of last year’s Final Four teams at the Ally Tipoff. Georgia Amoore was a force for the Hokies all night long, dropping in 7 threes in a 31-point effort, including a halfcourt buzzer beater to end the first quarter and a clutch three with 5 seconds left to pull the Hokies within one possession at the end. Elizabeth Kitley had a 16-point, 16-rebound double double despite taking a forearm to the face just as the second half got underway. Iowa’s Caitlin Clark led all scorers and finished with 44 points, 8 rebounds, and 6 assists in a back-and-forth thriller of a game that set a women’s basketball regular-season attendance record in the state of North Carolina.

  1. The entertainment stock of women's college basketball has risen significantly. CC is definitely the MJ of this time for women's college bball

  2. Good solid win for the Hawkeyes. VT is really good. 2 final 4 teams slugged it out. Iowa just had the biggest hitter. CC scored 44 of 80 Iowa's points 🤯

  3. Against the better teams with good defenses Clark historically has become a chucker. Note her games against LSU, both games against UConn, and against SC. This game was no exception. 13-31? 5-16 from the arc? That is horrific shooting. This team just can't beat the top 3 or 4 teams this year with Clark shooting as she has against these teams previously. They squeaked by here, but frankly, VT isn't a top ten team.

  4. One on one no one can match CC. But the game is five on five and I like the way Paige Bueckers can run an offense.

  5. This is a good example of why womens college ball is more exciting than the WNBA. They spend more time producing quality basketball and less time on politics/culture.

  6. Caitlin Clark is a fantastic basketball player and a better person off the court ! She is must watch TV ! Iowa and Clark didn’t have their best shooting game from the 3 but they still battled for the W …I can’t wait to see this team in FT Myers, Fl in 2 weeks !!

  7. If this is the way they want to get ratings and boost womens basketball very poor. Vt players couldn't even stand in front of her without being called for a foul disgusting. This was as worst as the womens championship game, they really show who they want to win in big games much respect to vt for staying competitive and almost pulling it out despite playing vs iwoa and the refs. I will no longer being watching or supporting womens college basketball with the way refs are getting away with cheating they need to be fired now.
