Caitlin Clark had 29 points and 15 assists to lead top-seeded Iowa to an 89-68 win over fifth-seeded Colorado in the women's NCAA Tournament on Saturday afternoon, setting up a rematch of last year's national title game against LSU in the region final.

Saturday, the Hawkeyes had barely stepped off the court after beating the Buffaloes before the questions came about LSU. Even so, the cameras will be trained on Clark and Reese, especially, Monday night as they face off in another high-stakes game. "Even when we were up 19, I'm like, 'Go, go, go! We don't stop!'" Clark said of the Hawkeyes' mentality Saturday."I think that always has to be our mentality, but that's also just the way we play. We play fast, we don't want to stop. That's how we dominate games.

"I speak for everybody on our team: We did not come into this game knowing LSU had won, and were like, 'oh, we want to win to play LSU,'" Clark said."We came into this game ... focused on beating Colorado, because Colorado is a really good basketball team."
