When all of you ladies return to this video years from now please know that you were appreciated!!! Man what a performance from both teams. Thank you thank you thank you
Proud of the Cyclones the way they stood their ground and traded shots with the mighty Stanford. The team is still young and the sky is the limit. Come back next year stronger, wiser, and hungrier!
I love Audi Crooks so much because she looks like my niece hehe. She can develop her defense, she's just a freshman. I am looking forward to watching her play in the next few years. Iowa State looks primed to move up with the young crew.
This young lady kiki iriafen is no joke she's very good she's very patient at her shot selection and she doesn't miss many shots she will fix you in that paint she's unstoppable. All i see is tim Duncan fundamentals from kiki iriafen
No shame in ISUs effort here! A nice tight game almost all the way and Stanford just got a good run. Hold your heads proud ladies! You didn't give up, you just got outplayed in the final minutes. All gas, no brakes! Love it!
Kiki Iriafen, a Stanford legend with 41/16 & the win. She's the program's first player with 40pts/15rebs (or a 40-piece) in an NCAA tournament game since Jayne Appel in 2009 -- also against Iowa State. Kiki has been overlooked a lot of this year mainly because of playing in the PAC-12 and Stanford getting no national TV games. I’m so happy people across the country now see how amazing she is. Biggest reason Stanford has a chance in any game is her not just Cam who is also incredible.
Stanford fan here that is so grateful for this team keeping it together and fighting till the end! Kiki was outstanding! The energy in Maples was amazing! My heart was racing the entire game. The team played incredible defense, but I will have nightmares about Emily Ryan shooting step back 3's like Curry for a while. Mad respect for ISU! Happy for my Card! Here we go Stanford 🤓🌲
No doubt! It's been a joy to watch ISU dominate the court this year, finally taking some attention from CC and the Hawkeyes. It's nice that the spotlight aimed so large at Iowa this year. These ladies have nothing to be ashamed of no matter the outcome on the scoreboard. That was a game of legends. Congrats to your Cards!
You think THEY played well..? ONLY TWO played basketball last night... the IA FRESHMAN POINT GUARD... and KiKI... the rest were AWFUL. Amazing no one was Killed by the the STILTS from Stanford... All they had to do was run to the basket and DROP it in... NO REAL ATHLETES ! WAY TO TALL.
If the refs didn’t kick Brink out I feel like this game would’ve been more comfortable for Stanford. When she was in the game Stanford’s defense was incredibly effective at slowing Iowa St. down.
All she can do is backdown girls smaller than her cause she’s 350 pounds. The Stanford girls are tall and long so she couldn’t get clean looks and that’s the extent of Audi crooks game. She’s just a obese merchant like you’d play against in 8th grade bball
definitely a better product than the mens college game. the 4 quarters helps the flow of the game with the fouls - the mens game just turns into a free throw competition
Incredible game! I expected Stanford to win, but would've never guessed it would've taken overtime for it to happen. I had no idea Iowa State was that tough of a team to beat.
Honestly, all of the teams that make the tournament are good/skilled (generally). It just depends on the day each team is having. Even SC isn't untouchable, even though everyone thinks they are.
The future #2 WNBA draft pick Cameron Brink for Stanford didn't have the best game either. 4-9 from the field with 8 points and 8 rebounds, fouled out in the 4th.
It was a classic until Iowa St took an obvious dive at the end. At no point was Stanford threatened with elimination when, under normal circumstances, the heavy underdog is going to hold for a three every time.
I'm a real Fan of Caitlin Clark and women's college basketball , but now I've got another women to follow #55 MS. Crooks I watched her score her best performance in her history 40 pts I couldn't stay seated in my chair and was screaming like a little kid . all I can say to her is thank you for adding your name to be a fan of in your future .
I mean, Shaq didn't dominate the paint because of his athleticism, but because of his physical attributes. I didn't know anything about any of the players (am not from the US, so I get exactly 0 media coverage of US college sport) and I think Crooks does move quite well for a woman of her size. Granted, I think she could be a much better player if she lost some kilos.@@MajorImpact
Another great example of how talented and determined and exciting women athletes get to be in college in so many sports, regardless of whether or not they go pro... they will have memories and leave a legacy for other athletes to aspire to, men or women. What a game!!
@@js77z some games are shown on TNT, I get some other channels so I can watch lots of games. It’s not really popular over here, people just don’t understand why Americans are obsessed about college sports, but I’m a March madness fanatic!! The best time in sports (unless the Knicks or Steelers win a chip 🤣). The drama, excitement, meltdowns, there’s just something about winning or going home that makes it the greatest event ever!!!
What a game. Clutch three after clutch three by both teams. These women are about to start making NBA money. There game is becoming more exciting than the men's game. Shot out to Crooks for Iowa. She is an amazing athlete.
I'm a Stanford fan and all im saying is idc if you are a Cyclones fan or not u gotta put some respect on Emily Ryan's name she was going down without a fight 😱😱
What an intense and extraordinary game! Pure classic game. Hated to see either team lose and I don’t follow either but will now!! #11 for Iowa St is another Caitlin Clark, popping 3s everywhere !! what do they feed those Iowa girls? #44 for Stanford super clutch!! Thanks for an awesome game!!
It was a great contest, and 1 team had to ultimately win but playing with the heart...it was a tie! Both teams are winners and should be proud! Amazing the progress of women's basketball over the last 30 years~
Cardinal #21, Demetre, is a hottie who saved her team with her clutch shot and rebound catch at the OT. She's a femme fatale to her opponents and their fans.
No what you just watched is still a passion and playing for fun. Once $$$ truly infects college sports it's over and VERY SAD Look what it did to the PAC-12. It's sickening
Congratulations on Iowa State on a great season and all of these mock drafts I seen two awesome point guard play today the point guard for Iowa St and the point guard for middle Tennessee st they both should be on someone's draft board. But please coach fennely TEACH AUDI CROOKS HOW TO HEAD FAKE!!!!!!! I was screaming at the tv head fake head , fake !! Probably could have had a lot of and ones otherwise awesome young player right along with the other young freshman
And she'll come back a little more fit next year. She's always gonna be a big girl but keep an eye on her fitness next year. She'll be even more of a problem down the road.
Kiki Iriafen was good but come on... Audi Crooks should've been benched as she clearly can't guard her. Emily Ryan, however..... sheesh. It was like Steph Curry in college
The overtime of this game was crazy
Man Kiki Iriafen and Emily Ryan were both playing tonight 🔥😮💨 what a great game!
When all of you ladies return to this video years from now please know that you were appreciated!!! Man what a performance from both teams. Thank you thank you thank you
Yes 💯❤🙏🏻
🙏🏽 beautiful basketball. These ladies played hard and displayed competitive greatness
Instant Instant Instant classic! I truly hope this game is remembered for a very long time. Edge of my seat. Great performances.
Couldn't have said it better !!!!! ... You are spot on 😊
Proud of the Cyclones the way they stood their ground and traded shots with the mighty Stanford. The team is still young and the sky is the limit. Come back next year stronger, wiser, and hungrier!
Agree! Proud of the Iowa State Cyclones. Will enjoy watching your team in the future. A native of Ohio fan. 🏀 ❤
Bruh what a game😭these girls fkn HOOPIN
Yepppppp u know it watkinsssssssss
Istg
This game took years off my life and I’m not a fan of either team 😭
😂😂😂😂😂😂❤
real😭😭😭
Well, you had to be rooting for someone to have it give you heart failure 🤣
The perfect brackets were all rooting for Stanford. Miraculously, we have 4 perfect brackets to the Sweet 16
obviously you are otherwise you wouldnt be watching. i didnt watch this game but now i want to
This was one of the best games I watched in a LONG TIME
I love Audi Crooks so much because she looks like my niece hehe. She can develop her defense, she's just a freshman. I am looking forward to watching her play in the next few years. Iowa State looks primed to move up with the young crew.
Good point, Sjon. When you think about it, Audi isn't too far past 8th grade!!! And yet look how she's mixing it up out there! Good things ahead!
She can barely run
A full game of clutch shots and prime time plays. One star rose above: Kiki Iriafen. Great game #44!
That was what March Madness is all about. What a great game for both teams.
This young lady kiki iriafen is no joke she's very good she's very patient at her shot selection and she doesn't miss many shots she will fix you in that paint she's unstoppable. All i see is tim Duncan fundamentals from kiki iriafen
Crooks has become a FAVORITE of mine, not ONLY by her play, but MAINLY because of her passion and personally.❤
She was a physical presence out there.
@@Briguy1027 and plays with a GREAT attitude.
she can barely run
Can’t even front Women’s basketball has been real good as of late, Keep doing well ladies 👌
Emily Ryan !!!! Point guarding master class !
From the highlights, it looked like an overtime, they were just exchanging made buckets. Insane field goal percentages. Wonderful to watch
Audi crooks and Emily Ryan did so good they all had a great year they shouldn’t be down they were a great team this year and stepped up to everybody!
audi crooks shot 3-21. she’s why iowa lost
@@DeanDriscoll-p9p she shouldn't have took the last shot playing that soft
This was one of those games you kept saying omg
No shame in ISUs effort here! A nice tight game almost all the way and Stanford just got a good run. Hold your heads proud ladies! You didn't give up, you just got outplayed in the final minutes. All gas, no brakes! Love it!

No… she was nothing but a ball hog and she nearly lost the game for her team by shutting her teammates off completely
@@DeezBitssesDumb comment.. they wouldn’t have won this game without Kiki
@@Tfl_dj I suppose. How do u know though? Perhaps they win the game by even more than they did. She’s preventing Stanford from playing as a team.
Stanford fan here that is so grateful for this team keeping it together and fighting till the end! Kiki was outstanding! The energy in Maples was amazing! My heart was racing the entire game.

"Incredible defense"? Better learn how to defend 3's or they won't get past the next round.
The women’s tournament has been 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’m not even a fan of either team but I was cheering for the Cyclones the whole video😂
Brink had Crooks on lock 5 blocks 😮💨
If the refs didn’t kick Brink out I feel like this game would’ve been more comfortable for Stanford. When she was in the game Stanford’s defense was incredibly effective at slowing Iowa St. down.
All she had to do was head fake hopefully she will learn that for the future heck brinks probably would have fouled out a lot sooner
Yea I was rooting for Iowa state but Audi was gettin locked
Amazing Brink could body slam Crooks...
Audi was getting fouled. Brinks had hand leaning over her shoulders every time.
Kiki is like that 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯
The 3’s taken were ballsy, the 3’s made were electric. The guts to attempt and hit tough shots when it counts most. Crazy game!
3-21 and fouling out is crazy work ngl
Give all credit to Cam and Kiki Stanford doesn’t have one of the best defensive front court in women’s college basketball for nothing
Bro she was missing open layups and had tons of mismatches in the paint.
All she can do is backdown girls smaller than her cause she’s 350 pounds. The Stanford girls are tall and long so she couldn’t get clean looks and that’s the extent of Audi crooks game. She’s just a obese merchant like you’d play against in 8th grade bball
@@elmehdinafia1237was not a mismatch Brink had here locked up
And zero defense. She was just standing at the rim while Kiki is doing free work
As a man.. I gotta say women's college ball. Been more entertaining than the nba
Been following them for some time now. Your absolutely right.
as a man i gotta disagree
Both are entertaining.
definitely a better product than the mens college game. the 4 quarters helps the flow of the game with the fouls - the mens game just turns into a free throw competition
@JamesMorrisoon nba is complete garbage right now.
Incredible game! I expected Stanford to win, but would've never guessed it would've taken overtime for it to happen. I had no idea Iowa State was that tough of a team to beat.

Kiki a straight baller 🫡
I agree as a Stanford fan but idc if u are a Stanford fan u gotta put some respect on Emily Ryan's name she wasn't going down without a fight 🤷🤷
@@countyboy3988 agree I am a fan what a game live up to the hype
3-21 is insane they locked Audi crooks down bruh
The future #2 WNBA draft pick Cameron Brink for Stanford didn't have the best game either. 4-9 from the field with 8 points and 8 rebounds, fouled out in the 4th.
@@El_Chunchoyeah but she had 4 blocks on Audi and and Audi was 3-21 against Brink
She played soft
Can’t believe Audi was 3-21!!! If she’d just shown up they would’ve won!!
Yeah trying to injure her must have been difficult for her
ESPN classic alert 🚨
It was a classic until Iowa St took an obvious dive at the end. At no point was Stanford threatened with elimination when, under normal circumstances, the heavy underdog is going to hold for a three every time.
game of the frikin year
These shooter are cold blooded
both sides
Crooks is a freshman, right? Played against Brinks, a senior. Nice job !
I'm a real Fan of Caitlin Clark and women's college basketball , but now I've got another women to follow #55 MS. Crooks I watched her score her best performance in her history 40 pts I couldn't stay seated in my chair and was screaming like a little kid . all I can say to her is thank you for adding your name to be a fan of in your future .
Above Comment from a Negative Nancy. She’s a freshman playing on Stanfords home court.
@@MajorImpact Hey, sometimes you just cycle into a bad outing, and there's not much more to say... the good old human condition.
@@MajorImpactShe was getting fouled on most her attempts. All hands over her shoulders and refs werent trying to give her none.
I mean, Shaq didn't dominate the paint because of his athleticism, but because of his physical attributes. I didn't know anything about any of the players (am not from the US, so I get exactly 0 media coverage of US college sport) and I think Crooks does move quite well for a woman of her size.
Granted, I think she could be a much better player if she lost some kilos.@@MajorImpact
Not everyone knows that Crooks was the state H.S. champ in both shot put and discus. Both field sports require excellent balance and footwork.
Go State! Cyclone pride! Great season and a tremendous game.
WOW!, that was a tough game, both teams were amazing! 😮
This game is definitely one of the best games of the tournament so far!
Great freaking game wow what a great game by both teams
And addy brown they all did good they are young and they are going to be good next year
WHAT A FRIGGIN GAME! 🔥🔥🔥
This was more fun than any nba game I’ve seen this season
I went to bed at halftime, doggone it! So really appreciate this summary video!
Best game of the tournament so far, that girl that took it on the chin, I felt that man!!🥵 Give her the trophy!!🤣🤣🤣
Brinks - that last foul on Crooks was not cool. At all. Don’t hurt people.
Incredible game by both teams!!!
Another great example of how talented and determined and exciting women athletes get to be in college in so many sports, regardless of whether or not they go pro... they will have memories and leave a legacy for other athletes to aspire to, men or women. What a game!!
Another GREAT GAME! ❤ Great talent on BOTH TEAMS … YOU GIRLZ ROCK !!
This was an absolute slugfest. I’m up in the UK loving March Madness ❤️❤️❤️❤️. Caitlin gets all the headlines but I got mad love for these girls 👍🏿👍🏿
March Madness is shown over there? (Or are you just talking about watching it on the internet). Is it popular there? Blows my mind if it is!
@@js77z some games are shown on TNT, I get some other channels so I can watch lots of games.

Greatest game of the year, enjoyed working 3rh shift at my employer... Thanks 🎉
ISU doesn't have anything but pride in a monster effort, crazy format when higher seeds play at home?! Women ncca way different than mens
Great game. Kudos to both teams 😊
That was great game wow
Wow, what a game
They put the Madness in March🔥
Good game.. I didn’t see it live, but on TH-cam highlights video.
Awesome
Both teams played Great
this game was soooo good
So good! It’s a shame one of these teams had to lose.
Game was 🔥🔥🔥 shout out to the queens for holding down this beautiful sport 🔥🔥🔥
HOW SWEET IT IS
What a game!!!
Crooks going beast mode
It was a great contest, and 1 team had to ultimately win but playing with the heart...it was a tie! Both teams are winners and should be proud! Amazing the progress of women's basketball over the last 30 years~
The cover is phenomenal
nahhh espn show replays of this all day women’s basketball is here
Why is the heavy set girl with zero vertical doing the jump ball??? That baffles me
well done by BOTH teams !
Another great women’s game. They ballin
Great game. In the name of fair play, it's too bad this game wasn't played on a neutral court.
Iowa state stood there ground and they had good 3pt shooters and Stanford did too
Best game by far. I expected it to be close but not like this.
@9:25 Brink tells the Iowa bench lol
Yeah I caught that during the game too. I thought it was at the ref at first but they would have teed her up if she did that. What a game tho.
Not one player on either team lacked effort! This is how you compete.
That was a great game!!
What a game
this game was crazy. somebody tell number 31 on stanford that she can come warm my bench anytime she want.
Cardinal #21, Demetre, is a hottie who saved her team with her clutch shot and rebound catch at the OT. She's a femme fatale to her opponents and their fans.
Women’s college bball is considerably more entertaining than NBA. More physical too.
Brink my favorite player she so good both sides 🔥 what a game know that was a game
Oh yeah she really carried them with those 8 points and 5 fouls
Reese better but shes been blackballedbinnthe WNBA draft over this girl
@@ghsense2626 It's cause of Brink's defense. I don't think Reese will be that good in the WNBA
@andrewmiller4116 Yes she will be dominant from the get go Reese is her. The WNBA is weak anyway.
Watch the potty mouth around 9:25- really classy. Ha!
Exciting game!
Great battle.
Excellent game wow amazing ❤
Great game 😎
Holy sh*t.. 😂 this game was insane
12:44 Uh someone explain the game clock from this point till end of game. What is with the quick delays.
Easily the game of the tournament to this point!
Great Game ❤
Women’s tourney way more exciting than the men’s this year!!
The money change em😂 this game was entertaining af!
No what you just watched is still a passion and playing for fun. Once $$$ truly infects college sports it's over and VERY SAD
Look what it did to the PAC-12. It's sickening

Great game!!!
