Indiana Fever No. 1 pick Caitlin Clark made history on Tuesday night when she was named the winner of the James E. Sullivan Award. Clark wrapped up her career at Iowa.
Another day, another place in the history books for Caitlin Clark. Clark won the James E. Sullivan Award for the second straight year on Tuesday. She is the first two-time winner of the honor in its 94-year history. The award is given to the nation’s most outstanding player at the college or Olympic level.
The AAU Sullivan Award is an incredible honor,' Clark said. 'I have been inspired by so many athletes that came before me and I hope I can be that same inspiration for the next generation to follow their dreams.' Olympians David Taylor and Emery Lehman, gymnast Frederick Richard, volleyball player Madisen Skinner and Paralympic swimmer Noah Jaffe were also finalists.
The Fever last won the championship in 2012. Tamika Catchings, Katie Douglas and Briann January were among the points leaders on that team. The Associated Press contributed to this report. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
