Caitlin Clark plays final game in Iowa

Clark played his final game at Carver-Hawkeye Arena, where the Iowa Hawkeyes defeated West Virginia 64-54.

"I’m very grateful that I got to play in an environment that supports women’s athletics the way that they do, not only women’s basketball -- and to be honest, they’ve been doing this before I ever stepped on campus,” Clark said, via Sportsnet.

“Maybe it wasn’t quite at the magnitude it is now, but these people and these fans have showed up, and they’ll continue to show up. You don’t want to get emotional, you don’t want to get emotional. I wish I could have stayed on the court a little longer.”

Clark is averaging 34.5 points, 8.8 assists and 7.3 rebounds this season. She has already declared for the WNBA Draft and is expected to be the first overall pick.

But before that, Clark and Iowa are looking to win the national championship, which has eluded the superstar.
