LSU’s Alexis Morris showed plenty of respect to Iowa’s Caitlin Clark ahead of title game

It’s all love between LSU’s Alexis Morris and Iowa’s Caitlin Clark.

Ahead of Sunday’s 2023 women’s NCAA tournament championship between LSU and Iowa, two of the game’s top players exchanged in a really cool meeting.

LSU’s Alexis Morris and Iowa’s Caitlin Clark were soon to be rivals on the court, but Morris couldn’t help but talk about how excited she was to meet Clark, the AP National Player of the Year.

While Morris called out what she felt was Clark’s “disrespectful” defensive playing style before Sunday’s contest, it was all love as the two greeted each other during the week.

LSU and Iowa clearly have a lot of admiration for each other, even when the competitive side comes out on the hardwood.

It would be LSU who hoisted the trophy in a surprising upset, but both teams certainly have a lot to be proud of for what was one of the biggest women’s NCAA tournaments of recent memory.

It’s very possible these two teams will see each other again next spring in next year’s tournament.
