Clark did that after hitting her sixth of eight three-pointers to put Iowa up 56-47 in the third quarter. She finished with 41 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists in Iowa's 97-83 win over Louisville on Sunday to advance to the Final Four for the first time since 1993.

Clark is also the first person to post a 40-point triple-double in the women's or men's NCAA tournament.

The Hawkeyes will now face defending national champion South Carolina in the Final Four on Friday in Dallas.
