Since moving on to the WNBA, Caitlin Clark has kept in touch with her Iowa teammates. The star guard recently responded to a TikTok video to hype up one of her closest college friends.
Following her run at Iowa, Gabbie Marshall did not continue pursuing basketball like Clark and Kate Martin. Instead, she dove into podcasting and social media and went to North Carolina for a Master's degree in Occupational Therapy. In her latest TikTok post on Tuesday, Marshall gave the world an up-close look at her getting her hair done.
Among those to comment on her makeover post was Caitlin Clark. The reigning Rookie of the Year let Marshall know she is a big fan of her new look.
"Love love love," Clark wrote.
Marshall and Clark played alongside each other at Iowa for their entire college careers. The 5-foot-9 guard appeared in 166 total games across five seasons and averaged 6.6 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.7 assists.
Caitlin Clark and Gabbie Marshall continue to support each other
Caitlin Clark commenting on Gabbie Marshall's TikTok is nothing new for the two of them. Even though life has taken them down different paths post-college, the former teammates still share a tight bond.
Clark's reaction comes on the heels of Marshall taking to social media to get hype about the former WNBA No. 1 pick. She took to Instagram on Tuesday to congratulate her former teammate on her latest achievement.
On Wednesday, Iowa women's basketball announced that they will be retiring Caitlin Clark's jersey number this season. The ceremony is slated for February 2nd during their matchup against JuJu Watkins and USC. This date was chosen because it reflects Clark's iconic No. 22 jersey (2/2).
As the news started to make its way around social media, Marshall got in on the hype of her friend and former teammate. She re-posted Iowa's video on her Instagram, showing the world how stoked she is for the retirement.
Clark's jersey retirement comes less than a year after the end of her historic run in college. During her run at Iowa, she etched her name in the record books on countless occasions. Clark's most notable feat was setting a new scoring record for both men and women's college basketball. She ended her career with 3,951 career points.
In four years at Iowa, Clark posted dominant averages of 28.4 points, 7.1 rebounds and 8.2 assists. Now, she'll get to see her jersey immortalized forever in the rafters.
