Iowa’s women’s basketball team will get Big Ten regular-season champion Indiana twice next season in conference play, according to the opponent breakdown released by the conference on Thursday.

Iowa split with the Hoosiers last season, losing 87-78 at Indiana on February 9 and winning 86-85 in the February 26 regular-season finale at home on Caitlin Clark’s buzzer-beating shot.

The Hawkeyes also will get Ohio State twice next season. Iowa defeated the Buckeyes 105-72 on March 5 to win the Big Ten Tournament.

Iowa’s other home-and-home plays in the 18-game conference schedule are Minnesota, Nebraska, and Wisconsin. The Hawkeyes will play host to Illinois, Michigan, Michigan State, Penn State and travel to Maryland, Northwestern, Purdue, Rutgers.

Clark, the consensus national player of the year, returns for her senior season with the Hawkeyes, who reached the national championship game last season before losing to LSU.

Iowa’s schedule will be released later this summer.
