The world is watching Sunday when the Iowa Hawkeyes host the Ohio State Buckeyes and Caitlin Clark will most likely pass Pete Maravich to become the NCAA's all-time leading scorer.
The Iowa star will be given a custom vest by Kristin Juszczyk to celebrate her senior day. The vest commemorates her breaking Kelsey Plum's NCAA women's scoring record along with her school records, per Yahoo Sports. The vest features elements from Clark's Hawkeyes jerseys and "NCAA women’s scoring leader” and “all-time Iowa leader in: points, assists, 3PM, FGM.”
“I wish I could add all her awards on there, but you would need 700 jackets to fit all that. Which is incredible,” Juszczyk said. “It’s a special piece and I hope she loves it. ... It's so special to me to be able to create, especially for a woman of her caliber. She's such a trailblazer in her league and it’s special to be able to see her selling out these arenas and breaking all these records. ... What a great way to be able to show her how much her fans love her and to be able to just represent herself through a piece of clothing."
The vest is sponsored by State Farm and the designer also made a custom vest for Jake from State Farm, insurance company's fictional spokesperson played by Kevin Miles. Miles wore the vest to the game and sat next to Maya Moore, Clark's hero who surprised her before tipoff.
The designer skyrocketed to fame this past NFL season because she makes her own clothes to cheer on her husband, San Francisco 49ers' fullback Kristin Juszczyk, and also made jersey jackets for Simone Biles and Taylor Swift, who is dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. The pop superstar's jacket went viral and helped boost Juszczyk to 1 million Instagram followers and a licensing deal with the NFL.
On Thursday, Clark declared for the WNBA draft, forgoing her optional fifth year to go pro. She is expected to go to the Indiana Fever with the No. 1 overall pick.
