Social media reacts as Iowa women’s basketball falls vs. Virginia
Social media reacts as second-seeded Iowa women’s basketball falls vs. No. 10 seeded Virginia in the round of 32 on Monday at Carver-Hawkeye Arena.
As second-seeded Iowa women's basketball (27-7, 15-3 Big Ten) saw its 2025-26 season come to a stunning conclusion on Monday afternoon after dropping an 83-75 double-overtime decision to No. 10 seed Virginia (22-11, 11-7 ACC) in the round of 32 from a sold-out Carver-Hawkeye Arena, Hawkeyes fans took to social media to voice their opinion on the shocking defeat. Overall, Iowa finished as a team shooting 31-for-84 from the floor, 5-for-29 from 3-point land, and 8-for-16 from the free-throw line.
However, the inability to close the door on the Cavaliers at several points in the game allowed Virginia to claw back time and again. With Iowa exiting the NCAA Tournament in the round of 32 for the second consecutive season, here are some of the top social media reactions from Hawkeyes fans: Go Hawks. You all were a joy to watch all season long.
The result wasn't what you wanted, but you still made us very proud. The future is blindingly bright. — Kevin Helmick (@mickhelmick4) March 24, 2026 Love you all!
What a wonderful season you had. Thanks for everything Hawks! Best of luck to our seniors you will all be missed!
