The refs made the correct call at the end of the Iowa/UConn game, and fans shouldn’t be afraid to say it.
Fans online are currently outraged because they feel the showdown between Paige Bueckers and Caitlin Clark was decided by the refs on a call that was either bad or shouldn’t have happened.
Huskies player Aaliyah Edwards was whistled for an offensive foul in the closing seconds for an illegal screen on Gabby Marshall.
The ball returned to Iowa with the Hawkeyes up 70-69, and a free throw from Caitlin Clark pushed it to 71-69 as the final score. The outrage online is incredible.
