(all times Eastern)
1:22 p.m. – Clark gets another steal, then picks up assist No. 2 with a beautiful transition bounce pass that leads to a layup.
1:17 p.m. Iowa 9, Nebraska 4. Timeout. Clark picks up an assist when feeding Hannah Stuelke in the post, gets a steal, then nearly picks up another assist, but a teammate misses a layup. Nebraska isn’t sending two players at Clark yet to try to get the ball out of her hand. Pretty much playing her straight up man-to-man so far.
1:12 p.m. – Clark misses an open three off the opening tip, but hits her next three-pointer and gets a bucket on a drive where she was fouled. She misses the free throw. Points scored 5 – Points needed for record – 34
1:01 p.m. – Early sign spotted in Lincoln: ‘Swifty? I’m a Clarky’
11:41 a.m. – The woman of the hour has entered the building. And so has the beginning of an expected sellout.
