Game set for November 15; tickets on sale June 5

The Iowa Hawkeyes women's basketball team is set to meet Vanderbilt University in a highly anticipated showdown at the Tyson Events Center in Sioux City on November 15.

Fans can secure their seats starting June 5 at 10 a.m., with tickets available through TysonCenter.com and the Primebank Box Office.

Iowa enters the contest riding a streak of eight straight NCAA Tournament appearances and ten consecutive seasons with at least 20 victories, underscoring the program’s sustained excellence.
