You wouldn’t expect anything less from Caitlin Clark.
After all, we’ve seen time and time again that the Iowa guard is always classy and comes off grateful at every turn in interviews. That was the case on Wednesday night when she passed former Ohio State star Kelsey Mitchell to get to No. 2 on the all-time NCAA women’s hoops career scoring leaders. No. 1 — Kelsey Plum, with 3,527 points — is right there, with Clark amassing 3,424 points after she helped the Hawkeyes beat Northwestern.
Check out the postgame interviews she did with NBC and with reporters, and you’ll see that she’s grateful, she’s all about praising her teammates and coaches:
