IOWA CITY, Iowa — For the first time in school history, season tickets for the upcoming Iowa women's basketball season are sold out. Prior to this, the team had only sold out three regular season games at Carver-Hawkeye Arena.
Last year's run to the national championship game led by the consensus player of the year Caitlin Clark boosted the team's already rising popularity. She, among other stars like Monika Czinano, led the Hawkeyes to the NCAA title game against fellow first-timers LSU.
Earlier this year, Iowa Athletics had to pause season ticket sales due to high demand.
Up next, the Hawkeyes will try and sell out a stadium when they host DePaul University in a scrimmage at Kinnick Stadium in October. The Hawkeyes were 31-7 and national runners-up to LSU last season, while DePaul was 16-17.
