Jan Jensen, who will be taking over the head coaching duties at the University of Iowa for the Women’s Basketball team, was present at the game between Kate Martin and Caitlin Clark. She had something heartfelt to say about the whole experience and about them playing each other again.
Jan Jensen shared her thoughts, saying it was incredibly fun to see the Las Vegas Aces play and to watch three of their former Hawks on the floor. She mentioned that seeing Caitlin, Kate, and Megan out there was beyond cool, regardless of the game’s score. Iowa Women’s Basketball has one way to play, and Caitlin, Kate, and Megan embody that spirit. She expressed how proud they are of them and how much love and support they have from the Iowa family.
This isn’t the first time that Jan Jensen and the coaching staff have shown support for Kate Martin and Caitlin Clark, especially when they play against each other. It’s clear that there’s a lot of love and support not only from the coaching staff but also from the overall fan base. Everyone involved seems to be really supportive of former Iowa women’s basketball players, which is huge.
This strong support is one of the reasons why Caitlin Clark and Kate Martin are some of the most popular players in the league. The Iowa fans deserve credit for showing up in numbers and making it known that Iowa is very supportive. For any big-time recruit considering their options, the University of Iowa should be at the top of their list. Playing for Jan Jensen, learning from Lisa Bluder, and experiencing the winning atmosphere at Iowa is a fantastic opportunity. There aren’t many places where you can say back-to-back National Championship games are possible. Iowa is a great place to be, and kudos to Jan Jensen and the staff for coming out to watch and support the girls.
