Crossover at Kinnick was an American exhibition women's college basketball game between the Iowa Hawkeyes and the DePaul Blue Demons.
The success of guard Caitlin Clark, who earned all major national player of the year awards, drove record ticket sales for the 2023–24 team.
[3] Head coaches Lisa Bluder of Iowa and Doug Bruno of DePaul first discussed the idea for the game during a private preseason scrimmage between their teams in the previous year.
[4] Bluder proposed the idea to Iowa interim athletic director Beth Goetz shortly after the 2023 NCAA tournament, inspired by the success of the campus celebration of the 2022–23 team, which drew 9,000 fans, and the school's Grapple on the Gridiron wrestling meet in 2015.
[8] The game was televised on the Big Ten Network, with Mike Hall on play-by-play commentary and Christy Winters-Scott and Meghan McKeown as color analysts.
