I enjoyed following the Indy Star and its staff following Caitlin's journey from Iowa and college basketball standout and rookie year with the Indiana Fever. It was fun to get some behind the scenes writing on how her journey progressed as she moved into professional sports. It seems almost surreal how she has economically impacted the Iowa atmosphere and then the fan culture with the Fever and the WNBA in general.

I'm looking forward to how the career she has in the WNBA unfolds moving forward. Thanks for sharing the articles with those who do not live in Indianapolis or have access to online articles.

It's an overview of the Caitlin Clark from her last college games in Iowa, her Season with the Indiana Fever in WNBA and the Post Season including her accolades of becoming Rookie of the year based on her establishing new records - triple double, most assists, etc.

It uses Indy Star Newspaper clips to highlight her entry to the WNBA, her Rookie Season, the Post Season, and the impact she has on both Indy Fever and the WNBA.

As A Fever fan- I thoroughly enjoyed it.
