Associated Press  

ALBANY, N.Y. — Caitlin Clark and Iowa are back in the Final Four again. Staley’s team will face North Carolina State, which is making its first appearance in the Final Four since 1998. It’s the second consecutive year that South Carolina has reached the Final Four undefeated and the fourth in a row the team has advanced at least this far. “I think of Kay Yow — 34 years at N.C. State and took this program to a Final Four in ’98,” Wolfpack coach Wes Moore said. “So we’ve just got to find a way to win one game against them, and it’s going to be a big challenge.” UConn is back in the Final Four after seeing its 14-year run end last season in a loss to Ohio State.
