As Team USA (3-0) played their third game in as many days in group play for the 2025 FIBA Women’s AmeriCup Monday night from Santiago, Chile, Iowa women’s basketball star forward Hannah Stuelke had a very quiet performance in the Americans’ third victory of the tournament. This time it was a relatively close 80-62 win over Puerto Rico (1-1).
In the game, Stuelke scored four points on 1-for-1 shooting from the floor and 2-for-4 from the free-throw line. The senior Hawkeye forward also collected three rebounds and two assists to close out her 15:09 of playing time.
Despite the low scoring impact, Stuelke finished the night with a +21 point differential and a +7 point efficiency when on the court for Team USA.
The highlight of her night came early in the third quarter when TCU guard Olivia Miles delivered a pinpoint pass to a streaking Stuelke, who finished at the basket for an easy fast-break layup.
Leading the team in scoring on Saturday was UCLA guard Gianna Kneepkens, who posted 14 points on 5-for-8 shooting.
Stuelke and Team USA will play their fourth and final game of group play on Wednesday night at 1:10 p.m. CT against Mexico. The game can be streamed on Courtside 1891 through MAX.
