IOWA CITY, Iowa - Julie Pospisilova finished with a team-high 16 points, but the Badgers (8-19, 3-12 Big Ten) suffered a 91-61 loss to No.7 Iowa on Wednesday night in Iowa City.

Iowa went 10-of-12 from the field in the second quarter, and took a 48-28 lead heading into halftime, and the Badgers could not recover in the second half.

The Hawkeyes shot 64.3% from the field. Caitlin Clark finished the night with 24 points, connecting on 9-for-12 from the field. Monika Czinano added 19 points.
