Iowa City, Iowa – A new era is set to begin for Iowa women’s basketball. Long-time assstant Jan Jensen was elevated after the retirement of Lisa Bluder and takes over a team that lost several key players from a team that played in two-straight national title games, including two-time national player of the year Caitlin Clark.
The addition of Villanova star Lucy Olsen and a talented freshman class gives this team potential.
Jensen says there is no way to speed up the process of gaining experience.
A concern right now is an injury has left the Hawkeyes without a back up at point guard as well as offseason injuries for Hannah Stuelke and Sydney Affolter. They have not practiced together since the end of last season.
The Hawkeyes open at home on November 6th against Northern Illinois.
