Clark also added 14 assists and nine rebounds to collect her 32nd career double-double.

Monika Czinano actually jumped up into fourth place in Iowaโ€™s career points list herself, surpassing Cindy Haugejorde. Czinano finished with 18 points and six rebounds.

โ€œWe have played back-to-back games really well. I was happy with how we brought the intensity from the jump. We shot over 50% from the field in all four quarters which is something weโ€™ll take every night. I was pleased with how we played and weโ€™re looking forward to Penn State on Saturday,โ€ Iowa head womenโ€™s basketball coach Lisa Bluder said afterwards.

Iowa led by as many as 31 points and now will turn their attention to Penn State on Saturday inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena at 11:30 a.m. CT.
