As a senior, she averaged 33.4 points and 8.0 rebounds per game and finished with a prep career total of 2,547 points. Clark, 23, also holds the Iowa high school basketball single-game record with 13 3-pointers made.
Throughout her time in West Des Moines, she was named a two-time Gatorade Player of the Year and Iowa Miss Basketball. Now, the school is repaying the favor by having their entire team and staff attend the Fever vs. Connecticut Sun game on Friday at 7:30 p.m. ET.
'We're on our way!' read the school's post on X. 'We're excited to watch the Fever play the Sun tonight.'
Following the announcement, Clark fans and members of the school's community on social media showed their appreciation.

Royals Turn Heads With Decision on No. 1 Prospect
Royals Turn Heads With Decision on No. 1 Prospect originally appeared on Athlon Sports. In a move that has electrified Kansas City, the Royals are calling up their top prospect, Jac Caglianone, as reported by ESPN's Jeff Passan on Sunday night. Advertisement The 22-year-old slugger, drafted sixth overall in 2024, has been tearing through the minors, boasting a .322/.389/.593 slash line with 15 home runs and 56 RBIs across 50 games between Double-A and Triple-A. Caglianone, a former two-way star at the University of Florida, has transitioned into a full-time hitter, splitting time between first base and right field. Royals fans, desperate for outfield power after a lackluster season, are buzzing with excitement as Caglianone prepares to make his MLB debut against the Cardinals and Yankees. Kansas City Royals first round draft pick Jac Caglianone poses with his mother Johanne Caglianone for photos on the fieldDenny Medley-Imagn Images "The kid has all the potential in the world," wrote one fan. Advertisement "Dude is a stud and is going to be a major asset to the Royals for years to come," wrote another. "Born superstar," said one user. "That's exciting news! Jac Caglianone is going to bring some serious power to the Royals lineup," said another user. "Damn Jac gonna rake for the Royals," chimed in another. Despite concerns over his high two-strike chase rate, the Royals believe his raw power and improved plate discipline—evidenced by more walks than strikeouts in spring training—make him ready for the big leagues. The 6-foot-5, 250-pound phenom's arrival signals a new era for Kansas City, a team looking to build on its 2024 postseason appearance. With Caglianone's bat in the lineup, the Royals are poised to make a serious statement in the AL Central.
