The Hawkeyes and Crusaders clashed on the hardwood, with both teams looking to advance to the NCAA Tournament Round of 32. The top-seeded Hawkeyes shook off some rust early in the game and took down 16 seed Holy Cross 91-65. Caitlin Clark had a game-high 27 points, eight rebounds and ten assists, while Kate Martin added 15 points and 14 assists. Addi O’Grady stepped up with 14 points and five assists in the absence of Hannah Stuelke, who was limited with a migraine.

HawkeyeReport.com photographer Dennis Scheidt was at Carver-Hawkeye Arena on Saturday afternoon to capture the best shots of the action. Up next, the Hawkeyes will face 8 seed West Virginia for a spot in the Sweet 16 on Monday night.
