During the championship game loss against the South Carolina Gamecocks, Affolter contributed 12 points, three rebounds and three assists. Her performance throughout the tournament was marked by standout moments, including a game-changing play against the West Virginia Mountaineers.

Affolter's rise to stardom in the Iowa basketball scene has been incredible. Initially a bench option for Lisa Bluder, the Hawkeyes guard from Chicago seized the opportunity to shine when starting point guard Molly Davis suffered a knee injury just before March Madness.

The departure of Caitlin Clark will start a fresh chapter for the Hawkeyes women's basketball team.
