The University of Iowa’s basketball court at Carver-Hawkeye Arena has a new addition that’s capturing the attention of fans and players alike. In a unique tribute to Caitlin Clark, the Hawkeyes have placed a special logo on the court to commemorate her record-breaking achievements in NCAA women’s basketball.
Caitlin Clark, a standout guard for the Iowa Hawkeyes, has been making waves with her incredible performances. Recently, she etched her name in history by becoming the all-time leading scorer in NCAA Division I women’s basketball. To celebrate this milestone, the university unveiled a decal on the court marking the exact spot where Clark made the legendary three-pointer that secured her the scoring record.
The logo, which features Clark’s jersey number “22,” is not just a symbol of her individual success but also a testament to the spirit of determination and excellence that she brings to the team. It’s a small yet powerful mark, placed about 30-feet from the basket, honoring the distance from which Clark launched her historic shot.
This special honor is a fitting way to recognize Caitlin Clark’s contributions to the university, the state of Iowa, and the game of basketball. As fans take their seats in the arena, they’ll be greeted by the “22 Clark” logo, a symbol of excellence that will inspire current and future generations of athletes.
