Iowa's Callie Levin drops 3-word reaction after Hannah Stuelke makes Team USA squad for 2025 FIBA Women's AmeriCup

Hannah Stuelke has been a steady force for the Iowa Hawkeyes for the past two seasons. Although she has been on the team for three years, she did not get a significant role until she was a sophomore. Her play earned her a spot at the team trials for the 2025 FIBA Women's AmeriCup for Team USA.

On Thursday, it was announced that Stuelke had earned a spot on the team. This news was posted by the Iowa women's basketball Instagram account:

"Spot secured 🤩 Hannah Stuelke will compete for Team USA in the 2025 FIBA Women’s AmeriCup!"

Stuelke's teammate at Iowa, Callie Levin, posted a three-word reaction in support of Stuelke.

'THAT'S MY GIRL!" Levin wrote.

Callie Levin was named to the team despite taking a step back as a scorer this past season. In her sophomore season, she had a big breakout year, averaging 14.0 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game. However, as a junior, she took a step back on the scoring side, averaging 12.7 ppg, 7.7 rpg and 2.2 apg.

While she was not as effective a scorer, she improved as a rebounder and playmaker.
