Simply reigning over the entire NCAA, men’s and women’s, was clearly not enough for the ever-so-competitive Caitlin Clark. Hence, after showing everyone that she could ride a bike as a three-year-old without training wheels and could be just as successful in football, she has devised one more surprising fact. To prove that she really does excel in every field of life, the enigmatic athlete has now wrecked the internet with her GPA.

According to the University of Iowa’s official page, Clark was majoring in marketing. Despite accomplishing the best of the best accolades on the sporting front, the Des Moines native was able to grab a 3.64 GPA. Consequently, the College Sports Communicators (CSC) announced her 2023-24 Academic All-America Team Member of the Year in late March.

She earned the same award last year as well. Hence, the honor also marked her as the seventh player to earn this honor consecutively. In the 2022-23 season, she was Overall D1 AAA of the Year and before that in 2021-22, she grabbed the first team AAA.

Caitlin Clark was adamant about getting a degree and successfully completing it. Hence, even though she will be knee-deep with the 2024 WNBA season, it is possible that Clark will also be present at the graduation ceremony on May 14, 2024. But what does she have to say about getting a degree?

Caitlin Clark throws her mother under the truck for graduation

While it would be hard to believe that not the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer’s competitiveness but her mother is responsible for her graduating, it seems to be the case. In her introductory press conference with the Indy reporters, she mentioned, “I actually still need to earn my degree, too; I need to graduate college first, or else my mom might kill me.”

Before the draft as well, Caitlin Clark had mentioned, “If I don’t graduate with a degree then all of this would be for nothing.” Certainly, the 2 Naismith Player of the Year has managed her life quite properly. It will be exciting to watch her play for the Fever and see how much her magic works on the professional floors. She still has a window open to be selected for this year’s Olympics team, which will be determined according to her first few games with Indiana.
