Iowa Hawkeyes basketball star Caitlin Clark needs no introduction. The NCAA all-time scoring leader is now the most famous face in college hoops after toppling "Pistol" Pete Maravich's NCAA scoring record this past weekend. The 22-year-old student-athlete recently announced she'll forgo her last year of eligibility in favor of entering the 2024 WNBA Draft on April 15, 2024.

The Hawkeyes come into the Big Ten Women's Basketball Tournament as the No. 2 seed, allowing them to skip the first two rounds of the tournament and enter today's quarterfinals when the Hawkeyes face the Penn State Nittany Lions. Because the Big Ten Tournament is single elimination, today's could be Caitlin Clark's last-ever college basketball game. Keep reading for all the ways you can watch Caitlin Clark play today.
