Caitlin Clark, the standout basketball player for the Iowa Hawkeyes, has announced her decision to enter the 2024 WNBA Draft, marking the end of her successful college career. This move comes as no surprise, considering that college athletes were granted an extra year of eligibility due to the pandemic, allowing Clark to potentially stay for a fifth season at Iowa. However, as the women's all-time leading scorer, she likely feels she has achieved enough at the collegiate level.
In a recent Instagram post, Clark expressed her excitement about entering the WNBA Draft while emphasizing that her focus remains on achieving more goals in the current season. With the Iowa Hawkeyes, she is set to play her final regular-season home game against Ohio State, where she is just 18 points away from breaking the NCAA's all-time scoring record held by Pistol Pete Maravich.
