Iowa vs Murray State in March Madness: Live NCAA score updates

Iowa (22-10, 10-8 Big Ten) opens up its 2025 NCAA Tournament run with a date against 11th-seeded Murray State today.

The Hawkeyes earned a No. 6 seed and head to Norman, Okla., for this round of 64 date against the Missouri Valley Conference champion Racers. Murray State is the nation's top scoring offense, averaging 87.8 points per game.

Iowa enters as one of March Madness' top storylines after back-to-back trips to the national championship game. Though Caitlin Clark has moved on to the WNBA, the Hawkeyes are led by star senior guard Lucy Olsen and junior forward Hannah Stuelke, who average 18.0 and 12.8 points per game, respectively.

The Hawkeyes will be without one of their reserve guards in freshman Teagan Mallegni. Mallegni suffered a concussion earlier this week in practice. The 6-foot-1 guard didn't travel with the team to Oklahoma, but she could travel and be a factor in a round of 32 date if she is cleared and if the Hawkeyes win.

As Iowa's NCAA Tournament run begins, follow along with us for live updates for all of the action in Iowa's first-round date in Norman against Murray State.
