Iowa women's basketball superstar Caitlin Clark left it all on Alaric Bennettthe floor in the No. 2 Hawkeyes' loss to No. 15 Ohio State on Sunday.
After scoring 45 points to go with three rebounds and seven assists in the 100-92 overtime loss, Clark was running off of the court when a court-storming fan collided with her. She spun and fell to the ground as her concerned teammates and coaching staff rushed over to help her.
"[It was] kind of scary and could've caused a pretty serious injury to me and knocked the wind out of me, but luckily my teammates kind of picked me up and got me off the court," Clark said in a post-game press conference.
"Their AD already came and apologized to me, so I really appreciate that."
Hawkeyes coach Lisa Bluder said she was disappointed that her players weren't able to walk off of the floor safely.
More than 18,600 fans came to Ohio State's arena for the game on Sunday, according to the team's page on social media site X (formerly Twitter). It was the largest indoor women's basketball crowd in the country this season and set a program record for attendance.
