Scouting the Hawkeyes
Second-year head coach Jan Jensen’s Iowa team features a potent inside game with senior Hannah Stuelke and sophomore Ava Heiden. Stuelke, a 6-2 forward, is averaging 14.0 points and a team-best 8.9 rebounds while shooting 54.5 percent from the field. While Stuelke leads Iowa on the glass, including 2.6 offensive boards per game, Heiden leads the Hawks with 16.4 points on 62.7 percent field goal shooting. The 6-4 center also owns a team-best 25 blocks while ranking second on the team with 7.2 rebounds per game. She is averaging 18.2 points per game in Big Ten play.
Sophomore transfer Chazadi “Chit-Chat” Wright has taken over the controls in the Iowa backcourt. The 5-4 point guard who spent last season at Georgia Tech is averaging 13.4 points and 4.6 assists while knocking down a sizzling 48.6 percent (54-111) of her threes. Last season she scored 15 points in 30 minutes off the bench for the No. 17 Yellow Jackets in a 72-61 win over No. 23 Nebraska in Atlanta.
Nebraska native Taylor McCabe, a 5-9 senior guard from Fremont, averaged 8.0 points while leading the team with 49 threes through Iowa’s first 20 games before suffering a season-ending knee injury against Ohio State (Jan. 25).
Taylor Stremlow has replaced McCabe in the starting five. The 5-10 sophomore is averaging 7.1 points and 3.6 assists on the season while adding more of a threat at the rim and in the mid-range.
Graduate guard Kylie Feuerbach rounds out Iowa’s probable starters. Feuerbach is averaging 5.1 points and 3.0 assists while serving as one of Iowa’s top perimeter defenders.
Iowa’s regular rotation includes Addie Deal (6.0 ppg), Journey Houston (5.3 ppg, 4.9 rpg) and 6-5 freshman Layla Hays (4.3 ppg, 2.5 rpg).
Iowa is averaging 79.3 points on 48.6 percent schooting, including 36.4 percent success from long range. The Hawkeyes are improving at the free throw line (.689) and own a plus-8.0 rebound margin and a plus-0.5 turnover margin.
