IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — The ninth-ranked Iowa women’s basketball team returns to action on Thursday night at Duke after missing three games while the program was in a pause because of a COVID-19 outbreak.

The Hawkeyes are entering a stretch that includes their Big Ten opener against Michigan State and a road game against No. 14 Iowa State next week.
