Previous season edit

The Hawkeyes finished the 2021–22 season with a 24–8 record, including 14–4 in Big Ten play. They won the 2022 Big Ten women's basketball tournament and earned the conference's automatic bid to the 2022 NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Tournament, where they advanced to the second round.[2]

During the season, consensus All-American Caitlin Clark became the first woman ever to lead D-I in scoring and assists in the same season, and Monika Czinano led D-I in field-goal percentage. This made the Hawkeyes the first Division I men's or women's program to feature the national leaders in those three statistics in a single season.[3]
