Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes faced off against Northwestern up in Evanston last night. The senior guard poured in 35 points as Iowa prevailed, 110-74. The 7,039 fans in attendance made for the first sellout in the history of women’s basketball at NU. The girl’s got game and star power. What I wouldn’t give to see Clark play for the Sky. Too bad she looks to be going elsewhere if she declares for the WNBA draft this year. But if Clark decides on a fifth year of eligibility, who knows? A couple of weeks from now, Steph Curry of the Warriors will go up against Sabrina Ionescu of the New York Liberty in a three-point shootout during the NBA’s All-Star weekend. That should be interesting. Add Clark to the mix in the not-too-distant future, and, whoa, you’d have a whole lot of people watching, me included.
