Clark gave it her best shot, but the Gamecocks were just too much. She scored 30 points on 10 of 28 from the floor, including five made 3-pointers. She got Iowa off to a hot start with a seven-point lead in the first quarter, but South Carolina clawed back in the second.
The Gamecocks continued to pile on throughout the second half and played tough defense on Clark and the rest of her Iowa teammates. At the end of the night, Clark and the Hawkeyes watched the confetti fall on South Carolina as they celebrated their second title in three years.
In eight days, Clark will lead the next generation of WNBA superstars. She’s likely to be the No. 1 overall pick when the draft begins.
