The Iowa women’s basketball team picked up a 92-54 win over Dartmouth on Wednesday afternoon at Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Catlin Clark led the way with 20 points, 10 rebounds, and 6 assists.

The Hawkeyes jumped out to a 34-19 lead by the end of the first quarter and balloned the lead to 54-24 by halftime. The Hawkeyes had 42 points in the paint and scored 24 on fast breaks.

Clark eclipsed the 2,000 career point plateau in her 75th career game, which ties her for the fastest NCAA Division I women’s player to do so with Elena Delle Donne.

Clark is the first Iowa men’s or women’s basketball player to eclipse more than 2,000 points, 550 assists, 520 rebounds, 110 steals, and 40 blocks in a career.

The Hawkeyes improved to 10-3 on the season and will next up host Purdue on December 29th at 8:00 p.m.
