What time does Caitlin Clark play today? Free Iowa-Ohio State live stream, how to watch online
The stage is set Sunday, March 3, for the coronation of Caitlin Clark as the all-time NCAA Division I scoring leader when sixth-ranked Iowa closes the regular season against No. 2 Ohio State at Carver-Hawkeye Arena. The game will be live streamed on Sling (half off first month), DirecTV Stream (free trial) and fuboTV (free trial).
Four days after she broke Lynette Woodard’s major college women’s record, Clark would pass Pete Maravich’s total of 3,617 points if she scores 18 against the Buckeyes.

Another full house will be on hand to celebrate Clark’s senior day. On Thursday, she announced she would enter the 2024 WNBA draft and skip the fifth year of eligibility available to athletes who competed during the COVID-19 pandemic. She is projected to be the No. 1 overall pick by the Indiana Fever and the WNBA is already seeing a rise in ticket sales.
Clark is all but assured of one or two more appearances at the arena after Sunday. Iowa is projected to be a No. 2 seed for the NCAA Tournament, meaning it would be at home for the first two rounds.
Pearl Moore of Francis Marion owns the overall women’s record with 4,061 points from 1975-79 at the small-college level in the AIAW. Moore had 177 points at Anderson Junior College before enrolling at Francis Marion.
Clark averages 28.3 points for her career and will be playing in her 130th game Sunday. Her career-best output was 49 points against Michigan on Feb. 15, when she passed Kelsey Plum as the NCAA women’s Division I career scoring leader.
Clark has 54 games with at least 30 points, most of any player in men’s or women’s college basketball over the last 25 years. She has six triple-doubles this season and 17 in her career.
