Caitlin Clark may go down as the greatest women’s college player of all-time, but she could not cement her legacy with a championship.
South Carolina is back on top of the women’s college basketball world as the Gamecocks completed an undefeated season on Sunday afternoon with an 87-75 win over Caitlin Clark and Iowa in the national championship game.
Clark left a lasting mark on the game as she finished with 30 points, eight rebounds and five assists. She was electric in the first quarter, scoring 18 points but South Carolina proved to be too much when it counted the most.
After the game was over, a heartbreaking photo surfaced showing Caitlin Clark making her way off the college basketball court for the final time.

The loss ends a record-breaking career for Clark as she leaves as the all-time leading scorer in both men’s and women’s college basketball. She scored 30 to lead Iowa on Sunday but it wasn’t enough.
Caitlin Clark Will Now Take Her Talents To The WNBA

This was the final collegiate game for the Iowa superstar, who has declared for the 2024 WNBA Draft and will be announced as the No. 1 overall pick to the Indiana Fever on April 15.
Last year, Fever selected Aliyah Boston as the top pick out of South Carolina and she was an All-Star in her first season and won the WNBA Rookie of the Year.
Bringing Clark in is going to make things much easier for both of them as the Fever is going to be a team to reckon with. The team could use the help as they finished 13-27 last year and haven’t made the playoffs since 2016 and won its only championship in 2012, via WNBA.com.
