The record-breaking machine

Undeniably, Caitlin Clark is one of the best players that women’s college basketball has ever welcomed. To top that off, her decent responses to becoming a giant in division I are only more adorable. Apparently, the 2023 AP Player of the Year is only focused on loving the game and not breaking records. When asked about how she felt about reaching the No. 2 spot on the women’s college basketball all-time leading scorer list, she had a delightful reply: “You don’t really think about it too much. I think you just come out every single night and play your game and have fun. And this is what comes with it.

If her grounded behavior was not enough, she further added something that made us love her even more. Continuing about the game Caitlin said, “I’m just grateful to be able to do it with these girls. I love them to death and these coaches put me in positions to be successful. I’ve had a lot of really good teammates in my time here. I can’t do it without all of them. I can’t do it without coach Bluder without letting me have the keys to the offense.”
