Dietrich Richardson's unofficial visit to Iowa came with an unexpected meeting.

The Manual junior got a chance to rub elbows with Hawkeye all-American Caitlin Clark, who is arguably the biggest name in women's basketball today. Richardson posed with Clark and his friend, Leshawn Stowers, a standout Peoria High junior, during an unofficial visit to Iowa on Feb 17.

"She's nice," Richardson said of the NCAA women's all-time leading scorer. "She's a good person."

As for the visit, the 6-foot-7 junior said it was "good" and that he "had fun there." Richardson especially likes the Hawkeyes' offense, which averages 83.7 points a game under coach Fran McCaffery.

During Richardson's visit, Iowa knocked off No. 20 Wisconsin, 88-86, shooting 52.6 percent from the field and putting four players in double figures.

"They got a good offense," Richardson said. "It's not strictly all just plays and basic things. They let their players play a little bit. They got a little freelance sets."

Iowa has not offered Richardson yet. He holds offers from Bradley, Illinois, Virginia Tech, Indiana State, Wisconsin-Green Bay, Vanderbilt, Southern Illinois and Bryant.
