Gabbie Marshall is nearing the end of her journey with Iowa women’s basketball, and in a fierce game against West Virginia on March 25, the guard shined in an important moment for the game.

After Iowa women’s historic journey to the NCAA championship game last year, Marshall, Caitlin Clark, Kate Martin and the Hawkeyes have returned to the Big Dance in what many fans hope will lead to a title win this time around.
