Caitlin Clark faces U.S. Olympic snub: reports

Raw Story  

Women’s basketball phenomenon Caitlin Clark will not be selected for the United States Paris Olympics team, multiple US media reports said Saturday. Clark entered the WNBA this season after a record-shattering college career that has sent interest in women’s basketball skyrocketing. Clark shot to prominence during her college career, which saw her eclipse Pete Maravich’s 54-year-old all-time college basketball scoring record, largely due to her long-range shooting prowess. Even though Iowa was beaten in the final, the game smashed ratings records, drawing an average audience of 18.7 million viewers, making it the most watched women’s basketball game in history.
