Hell of an athlete - Caitlin Clark also played softball, volleyball, soccer, tennis, and golf as a child before focusing on basketball.[2][4] At age 13, she began playing several years ahead of her age group in girls' leagues.[5] In sixth grade, she joined All Iowa Attack, an Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) basketball program based in Ames, Iowa and played for teams in the program until graduating from high school.[2][6] She was coached by Dickson Jensen with Attack, and her AAU teammates included future Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) player Ashley Joens.[7][8][9] Clark drew inspiration from Maya Moore of the Minnesota Lynx, the closest WNBA team to her hometown, and traveled with her father for three-and-a-half hours each way (seven hours roundtrip) to see their games.[10] She admired All Iowa Attack alumnus Harrison Barnes and became a fan of the North Carolina Tar Heels after Barnes joined the program.[6]
