Hawkeyes retiring No. 22 jersey

Caitlin Clark, one of the most important women’s basketball players in recent memory, will have her jersey hung up forever at Iowa’s Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Clark, the now-Indiana Fever guard, will have her No. 22 jersey retired on Feb. 2. Of course, the date February 2nd or 2/2 is the same as her jersey number. Clark is the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer and one of the most prolific players and shooters in the sport’s history. She averaged 31.6 points with 7.4 rebounds and 8.9 assists per game as a senior in 2023-24, also shooting 37.8% from 3-point range on a whopping 13.6 attempts per game on average. Clark will become the third player to have their number retired at Iowa, joining Megan Gustafson (No. 10) and Michelle Edwards (No. 30). Clark will be in attendance for the game, when the Hawkeyes take on USC at 12:30 PM on Feb. 2.
