Two Iowa women’s basketball players have been added to the Wooden Award Watch List. The Los Angeles Athletic Club announced on Tuesday that Hawkeyes senior forward Hannah Stuelke and freshman guard Addie Deal have been selected to the Wooden Award Top 50 Watch List following an outstanding start to the 2025–26 season for No. 20 Iowa women’s basketball (4-0).
Stuelke was also included on the Ann Meyers Drysdale Award watch list, the Katrina McClain watch list, and the preseason Naismith Trophy watch list. The 6-foot-2 native of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, has averaged 12.0 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.3 steals per game on 63.6% field goal shooting thus far this season. Deal, a 6-foot true freshman from Irvine, California, averages 6.0 points, 3.0 assists, and 1.5 rebounds per game while shooting 34.8% from the field and 25% from beyond the arc.
Eight other Big Ten players, including Michigan’s Syla Swords and Olivia Olson, Ohio State’s Jaloni Cambridge, USC’s Jasmine “Jazzy” Davidson, and UCLA’s Lauren Betts, Sienna Betts, Kiki Rice, and Gianna Kneepkens, are on the Top 50 list along with Deal and Stuelke. The Wooden Award Watch List, which is made up of 50 student-athletes who are front-runners for the most coveted awards in college basketball—the Wooden Award All-American Team and the Wooden Award Most Outstanding Player—was chosen by a preseason survey of national college basketball experts.
On April 10, 2026, the Los Angeles Athletic Club will honor the winners of the various Wooden Awards and All-Americans. On Thursday, November 20, the Hawkeyes will play their next game in the WBCA Showcase in Orlando, Florida, against No. 10 Baylor. ESPN2 will broadcast the game, which is scheduled to start at 8 p.m. CT.
Resale of Caitlin Clark’s new Kobe 6 Protro shoes has increased.
Not just on the court, Caitlin Clark’s new Kobe 6 Protro “Light Armory Blue” sneakers have created quite a stir. They reportedly sold out in less than a day at a retail price of $200. However, on the market for resale? Costs are skyrocketing. Rare sizes have been observed selling for up to $689, while some listings now average as much as $350.
With icy blue hues, neon Swooshes, and a snakeskin texture that pays homage to Kobe Bryant’s iconic legacy, the design complements Clark’s Indiana Fever gear. This is more than just a shoe for sneakerheads; it’s a collector’s paradise. Additionally, Clark’s next signature shoe is already anticipated in 2026, which serves as yet another reminder of the amount of pull she has developed.
