Caitlyn Clark is a 22 year old, 6’0” basketball player. Clark played 4 years at Iowa, and won the Big Ten leader in triple doubles, and became the all- time leading scorer for women and men. Also, because of her amazing shooting and assists she was awarded the 2024 wooden award. After her 4 years at Iowa she was the first pick at the WNBA draft, and now plays for Indiana Fever. She has already set many records such as most points, assists, and triple doubles by a rookie. In fact, the year she played for Fever, almost 3 times more people attended the games she was playing in on average! What makes her so great is her ability to see who to pass to every time, and her amazing shooting average(and 3- pointers!)

SOCCER

by Jackson S.

Soccer is a great sport to play because it keeps you active and outside. Also it pays lots of money if you are good. Also it is a very competitive sport. There are different leagues so if you are better than other people you can try out for a better league which means better competition and more competitiveness. This is a great sport because everyone can play it and you don’t need to be the best to play. There is not many rules and it is a very easy sport to play. All you have to do is try.

Opinion on playing soccer 

By Quentin

My opinion on soccer is that I think it is a good sport and a great way for kids to get outside and expand their mind. The reason I think this is because it teaches kids to be hardworking, confident, and competitive. It teaches them to be hardworking because they are learning that they have to work for what they want, which in this case would be soccer. And it teaches them to be confident because in order to do good and help their team they need to be confident with their own skills and use those skills to help their team. Some more reasons why soccer is a great sport is that it allows kids to play together and have good sportsmanship with each other. One last reason is that it helps them grow their muscles and build a good mindset.
