A logo for Iowa guard Caitlin Clark’s record-breaking shot is seen through a camera during a basketball game between No. 4 Iowa and Illinois inside a sold-out Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City, Iowa, on Sunday, Feb. 25, 2024. The Hawkeyes defeated the Fighting Illini, 101-85.

Thirty-three feet away from the basket inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena, you’ll find a piece of history.

Iowa unveiled a logo — CLARK spelled out in black with a 22 above outlined in gold — honoring Caitlin Clark’s record-breaking shot against Michigan on Feb. 15 that made her the NCAA women’s basketball all-time leading scorer. She recorded a career-high 49 points as the Hawkeyes beat the Wolverines, 106-89.

The logo made its debut on Sunday against Illinois. The Hawkeyes beat the Fighting Illini, 101-85, behind Clark’s sixth triple-double of the season and 17 three-pointers as a team. Clark is now 51 points away from passing Pete Maravich and becoming the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer.
