2025 KEYNOTE SPEAKER – Caitlin Clark

Caitlin Clark is one of the most exciting basketball players of her generation, a transcendent athlete who has broken records on and off the court, achieving global popularity thanks to her logo threes, visionary passing, and competitive spirit. After closing out her collegiate career by leading the University of Iowa to back-to-back NCAA Championship games, driving record viewership and attendance, Clark was selected first overall by the Indiana Fever in the most-watched 2024 WNBA Draft. During her remarkable rookie season, she earned a WNBA All-Star selection, showcasing her elite playmaking and court vision. She shattered single-season and single-game assist records, broke the rookie scoring record, and made history as the first rookie to record a triple-double with her dynamic, aggressive style of play. Her remarkable impact on the court helped propel the Indiana Fever to their first playoff appearance since 2016. Capping off her extraordinary rookie year, she became the first rookie since Candace Parker in 2008 to make the First Team All-WNBA, one of only five players to ever achieve this honor, and was named the 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year.

After being recruited by some of the top collegiate programs in the country, Clark chose to stay close to home, leading the Hawkeyes to three consecutive Big 10 championships. Along the way, Clark rewrote the record books as the first college player to surpass 3,000 points, 750 rebounds, and 750 assists. She set a new standard in women’s Division I basketball, boasting the highest number of 30+ point games over the past 25 years. Clark is also one of only seven women to win the Wooden Award twice and one of nine to win the Naismith Award multiple times. In the last home game of her senior season, Clark surpassed Pete Maravich for most points scored by a Division I basketball player, men’s or women’s. On April 10th, 2024, the University of Iowa announced the school will be retiring her No. 22 jersey to honor her iconic career.  

Off the court, Clark is also making an impact with The Caitlin Clark Foundation which is focused on youth empowerment through education, nutrition, and sports—the very pillars of her success. The foundation is already benefiting organizations like the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Iowa and making meaningful impact in the community. Clark’s relentless pursuit of excellence transcends anything she ventures into, as she remains committed in enduring change, both within the game and beyond its boundaries.
