Caitlin Clark, Iowa teammates seek to pack football stadium for Oct. basketball matchup
View Date:2025-01-14 09:12:38
The ever-expanding brand of Iowa women's basketball is adding another premier event to its already robust schedule. Caitlin Clark and the rest of Lisa Bluder's Hawkeyes will host DePaul in a scrimmage at 4 p.m. ET (3 p.m. local) on Sunday, Oct. 15 ... only this matchup will have a little bigger venue than what fans are used to.
The "Crossover at Kinnick" event will occur at Kinnick Stadium, home of Iowa's football team, with BTN+ and the Hawkeye Radio Network broadcasting. There will be no issues with turnover from a football game the previous day either, the Hawkeyes are on the road against Wisconsin on Oct. 14.
Iowa women’s basketball season ticket holders from 2022 will have access to purchase tickets beginning at 9 a.m. on Aug. 15, followed by University of Iowa contributors and football season ticket holders on Aug. 16 and general public on Aug. 17. Proceeds of the event will benefit the University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital.

How full can Kinnick Stadium get for Clark and this soaring program? We're about to find out. Consider this the perfect appetizer ahead of a highly anticipated season that will see large crowds follow the Hawkeyes everywhere after Clark became a household name in the 2022-23 season when she took home multiple national player of the year awards and led the Hawkeyes to the NCAA championship game.
“We’re super excited to play in front of the best fans in the country inside Kinnick Stadium,” senior Gabbie Marshall said in a school release. “We’re thankful to have an administration that gives us this platform to elevate our sport.”
