Exploring NCAA Star Caitlin Clark’s Little Known Soccer Career

Caitlyn Clark has taken Division I basketball by storm. The Iowa guard has made a name for herself as one of the finest, with the player going into the record books as the all-time seasonal top scorer. However, before she was lighting up the basketball courts in Iowa, the NCAA superstar earned a reputation for herself as a decorated list-A athlete in the High School Division!

Clark’s journey as a soccer star dates as early as the early 2010s when she was just eleven years old. Before picking up basketball as her primary sport, the Iowa guard represented the West Des Moines Soccer Club in a 9v9 soccer championship. It seems like her competitive streak has always been there with her former coach Ross Moffat labeling her a ‘maverick’.

The spring of her freshman year opened new doors for Caitlin Clark with the player joining Dowling Catholic High School. Despite transitioning to basketball, the player remained committed to soccer, joining the school team in 2017.

At Dowling, she played under head coach JP Pearson, who took her game to the next level, developing her into one of the deadliest strikers across all high schools. As ludicrous as it sounds, Caitlin played just 6 games in her freshman year as a soccer player. However, in the short period, the player bagged 26, yes 26 goals to become the only freshman to be inducted to the all-state first-team.
