For the first time in the history of the Iowa women's basketball program, their home opener was a sellout. That's something Iowans will get used to real soon since the entire season at Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City is sold out.

Monday night's 102-46 victory over Farleigh Dickinson featured four Hawkeyes in double figures, including two new starters. Iowa led all but 18 seconds of the game and led at halftime 60 to 24. The Hawkeyes had a fun night, especially after Molly Davis hit a miracle shot at the end of the first quarter.

6'2" sophomore forward Hannah Stuelke, taking the place of departed senior McKenna Warnock in the starting lineup, had a big game in only 18:34 on the floor. She scored 22 points, hauled in nine rebounds, and had two assists and two steals. Stuelke, a Cedar Rapids native who played at Cedar Rapids Washington, also connected on one of two attempts from outside the arc.

Perhaps the biggest surprise of the night came from 6'3" redshirt junior Sharon Goodman. A native of Lime Springs, Iowa, she was a formidable replacement for Monika Czinano who was drafted into the WNBA after a tremendous career.

Goodman played just over 16 minutes Monday night. During that time, she scored 19 points and grabbed four rebounds. She also had one beautiful blocked shot.

Stuelke and Goodman were a combined 16 of 18 from the floor in Monday night's win.
