Caitlin Clark is having another record-setting season at Iowa, and Hawkeyes fans clearly are not the only ones who want to witness it.
Clark has been helping opponents set records, too. Iowa has played in front of sellout crowds in most road games this season. Several of Iowa’s opponents have drawn their largest women’s basketball crowds in school history when hosting the Hawkeyes. The list below shows just how significant of an impact Clark has had on attendance numbers.

Clark led Iowa to a 110-74 win over Northwestern on Wednesday night. She scored 32 points and moved into second place on the NCAA women’s all-time scoring list. Northwestern has averaged 1,671 fans per women’s home game this season, but they had a sellout crowd of 7,039 against Clark and company.
Simply put, Clark is putting butts in seats. The senior now has 3,424 career points and is 103 points shy of passing former Washington star Kelsey Plum for first on the all-time scoring list. If Clark plays to her average of 32.3 points per game, she could claim the top spot in Iowa’s next three games.
