Obviously, for any diehard Hawkeyes and Clark fan, this game will be must-attend material.
Clark making her return to Carver-Hawkeye arena will be amazing to watch. It had been previously thought that Clark had played her last game on her home court.
To Iowa, Clark means everything. She completely changed the outlook of the Hawkeyes' women's basketball program and put the school on the map like it had never been before. Having her come home, even for a preseason game, is absolutely amazing.
This will also be special for Clark. She loved her time in Iowa. Being able to lead her WNBA team back to the school that helped her become the sensation that she is will be a cool moment.
Expect to see Hawkeyes fans pack the arena. Already, most Iowa fans have become Indiana fans. Clark is a walking brand and the Hawkeyes' fan base will support her throughout her entire career.
All of that being said, the game is officially set to be played on May 4. There is going to be an amazing feeling in the arena and Clark will receive an extremely warm welcome home.
