Iowa’s women’s basketball team is expected to play in front of sellout crowds all season at home.

The biggest crowd may be at the Hawkeyes’ exhibition game.

Iowa will play host to DePaul in the Crossover At Kinnick outdoor exhibition at Kinnick Stadium on Sunday, October 15. The game will have a 3 p.m. start.

Iowa women’s basketball season ticket holders from last season will have access to purchase tickets beginning at 9 a.m. Tuesday, August 15, followed by university contributors and football season ticket holders on Wednesday August 16. Public sale of tickets will be on Thursday, August 17.

A limited number of Rain or Shine tickets will be sold at $20 that will allow fans to attend the event at Kinnick Stadium or Carver-Hawkeye Arena in case weather forces the game to be played indoors. Kinnick-only reserved seat tickets will be $10 for adults, and $5 for students, and youth ages 18 and under Football stadium premium seat holders will be contacted separately and provided an opportunity to purchase tickets to the event.

Proceeds from the event will benefit The University of Iowa’s Stead Family Children’s Hospital.

Iowa returns three starters, including consensus national player of the year Caitlin Clark, from last season’s team that reached the national championship game before losing to LSU.
