Caitlin Clark was fired up on Monday night.
After getting a close win against West Virginia, Iowa Hawkeyes guard Caitlin Clark was full of electricity. It was understandable since the game was close enough to where many thought the Hawkeyes would be sent home early in the NCAA Tournament.
Taking on the Mountaineers in the second round of the women’s NCAA March Madness tournament, the Hawkeyes walked away with the 64-54 victory to punch their tickets to the Sweet 16. As far as Caitlin Clark, she had herself quite a day.
In her home finale at Carver-Hawkeye Arena, Caitlin Clark had 32 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 assists, according to ESPN.com.
At one point during the game, Clark was so fired up that she appeared to scream out “Shut the f–k up” to the crowd, which was weird since Iowa was playing at home.
Social media couldn’t believe the words that were coming out of her mouth as it was shown on replay and in slow motion:
