Iowa women’s basketball is bringing in some serious talent this weekend, with several recruits hitting Iowa City for official and unofficial visits. This comes right after last weekend saw Sienna Williams on an official visit, alongside Logan Miller, Kinsley Ketterhagen, and Bridget Fitzgerald, which is a big deal for the program’s future.
The Big Fish Already Hooked
Let’s talk about the big names coming in for official visits. Jada Seubert, a 5-star recruit from the 2027 class, is already confirmed to Jan Jensen’s squad for next season. This Wisconsin native isn’t just a 5-star talent, she’s the top-ranked player in her state and sits at 45th overall nationally. That’s a huge get right there! But the Hawkeyes aren’t done yet. Khalia Hartwell, another 5-star center from the 2027 class out of South Carolina, is making a visit. She’s narrowed her choices down to three schools, with Georgia and Virginia Tech also in the mix for the 21st-ranked recruit in the nation. This visit could be massive!
Future Stars Making Unofficial Visits
Beyond the official visits, there’s a whole crew of unofficial visitors who could be shaping the team for years to come. Quinn Sowder, a 2030 guard from Indiana, already has an offer from the Hawkeyes and has posted about other Division I offers from schools like Louisville, Iowa State, UCF, Miami, Maryland, and Wisconsin. Then there’s Jaycie Helmer, a 2030 point guard/power forward from Minnesota, who also picked up an Iowa offer in July. Maddie Hamiel, a 2029 combo guard from Minnesota, is ranked as the No. 2 player in her class and got an Iowa offer in July.
The list keeps going with Janille Arrey, a 2029 small forward/power forward from Minnesota. Kelli Kalb, a 2028 shooting guard/small forward from Johnston, Iowa, has offers from Northwestern, Colorado State, Creighton, and Utah. Braylyn Birmingham, a 2028 combo guard from Norwalk, Iowa, has offers from Wisconsin, Northwestern, Utah, and Virginia Tech. And we’ve got Sadie McCann and Grace McCann, both combo guards from Waukee Northwest, from the 2028 and 2029 classes, respectively. The future is looking bright if even a fraction of these talents choose to play in Iowa City. These visits are all about laying the groundwork for sustained excellence.
