In the win, Olsen shined for Iowa, finishing the game with a team-leading 22 points on 9 for 16 shooting from the field and 2 for 4 from 3-point range. She also registered three rebounds and two assists in 37 minutes of play.
A transfer from Villanova, Olsen was a unanimous First-Team All-Big 10 selection in her first season with the Hawkeyes, averaging 18.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 4.8 assists per game on 43.8% shooting.
Iowa head coach Jan Jensen noted how impressed she’s been with Olsen’s ability to adapt over the course of the season after transferring to the team.

“Throughout the year, when you’re transferring in as a point guard, you’re trying to learn a system, you’re trying to run it, and then you’re managing that orbit that still includes Caitlin Clark,” Jensen said. “And I thought she really started to get that confidence and lean into what she can do.”
The Hawkeyes enter the Big Ten Tournament as the No. 11 seed. Ironically, they will play on the opening day of the tournament against 14th-seeded Wisconsin on Wednesday at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
