The post that thanked Hawkeyes fans for their unwavering support over the past four years at Iowa, showered love on her teammates and family, and, most importantly, provided clarity on her intentions to declare for the 2024 WNBA draft.
She made her decision public three days before Iowa’s senior day against Ohio State on Sunday afternoon — something that will be an all-around affair, with a sold-out crowd and ESPN’s “College Gameday” in town.
“I think I’ve known for a little while, honestly,” Clark told media Friday afternoon. “I’ve had quite a few conversations with our coaching staff, and they were always very supportive in trying to help me understand both sides and see both sides, so I think especially over the last couple weeks, my decision has become more clear.”
