Instruction from the head coach should have been "if you make the first free throw, then miss the second off the rim. If we get the rebound, game over. If they get the rebound, good chance the clock runs down further or out". by making the second free throw, it game Iowa a chance to set up a play 2. It doesn't take a genius to know exactly what play Iowa is going to run. The defender on the high pick has to step out and keep Clark from easily running around the pick. Go ahead and leave Cinzano open, better to have her shoot an open 2 than Clark an open 3. This was a terrible job of planned defense by Indiana. Great shot by Clark though, still not easy hitting that shot under those circumstances so hats off to her. [/QUOTE]
