Hawkeyes Gabbie Marshall soaking in end of her basketball career

Publish date: 2024-05-19

Iowa sixth year senior Gabbie Marshall will conclude her basketball career at the end of the 2024 season. She’s used all of her eligibility, and will pursue her masters in occupational therapy.

There’s just seven regular season basketball games remaining — and Marshall is just trying to take it one step at a time.

“My mentality this year is to focus on my teammates,” Marshall said. “Just making the most of every opportunity that I get, all the memories that we’re making. I think it’s really bittersweet.”

“I think in my other years I’ve just focused on improving in basketball, which I’m still doing but at the same time, I know I’m nearing the end of my basketball career forever. I’m just trying to soak in all the memories off and on the court.”

Marshall’s sixth year counterpart Kate Martin may have coaching in her future. Earlier this week, she was named to the 21st “So You Want to Coach” class. A head coach’s recommendation is required for consideration.

Martin and Marshall are leading the Hawkeyes to the Big Ten’s best regular season record (21-2) and are the second ranked team in the country, according to AP voters.
