IOWA CITY, Iowa — College basketball icon Caitlin Clark has joined the Gatorade team.
The sports drink company announced the deal in a Tuesday Instagram post featuring the Hawkeye standout.
The video features footage of Clark playing basketball as a kid and in her current career as an Iowa Hawkeye. Clark's voiceover references her Iowa roots, along with wanting to inspire the next generation.
"I was once that little Iowa girl who was inspired to dream big, real big. And that dream was more than women's basketball. It was possibility that I turned into reality. I'm still that girl from Iowa. But now, it's my turn to inspire. If I can drop 40, you can drop 50. If we can draw 56,000 fans, you can draw 57. If I can sign with Gatorade, you can too."
