South Carolina beat Iowa to cap perfect season with NCAA Tournament title

• Kamilla Cardoso stars with 17 rebounds for Gamecocks
• South Carolina finish season unbeaten at 38-0
• Caitlin Clark's 30 points not enough for Hawkeyes
• As it happened: Iowa 75-87 South Carolina

Dawn Staley and South Carolina completed their perfect season, ending Caitlin Clark's historic college career with an 87-75 win over Iowa in the NCAA championship game on Sunday.

It doesn't always end like you want it to end, much like last year. But my freshies are at the top of my heart because they wanted this. It's awesome ... It's awesome. It's awesome. It's unbelievable," Staley said. When young people lock in and have a belief, and have a trust, and their parents have that same trust, this is what can happen. They made history. They etched their names in the history books."
