Just months after completing her player of the year award sweep, Iowa's Caitlin Clark took home another honor, courtesy of the ESPYs. 

Clark was named best college female athlete Wednesday night.

It's one of many accolades given to the guard over her career, including the Naismith, AP Player of the Year and 2023 John R. Wooden Women's Player of the Year awards.

She broke the NCAA single tournament scoring record and pulled off a 41-point, 12-assist and 10-rebound triple-double in an Elite Eight win over Louisville. 

Clark also led the Hawkeyes through the Final Four and into the NCAA Women's Tournament championship game

The Dowling Catholic alumna and Big 10 Player of the Year has one more guaranteed year in college, with a possibility of another after that.  

USC's Caleb Williams won the men's award. 

And the ESPY goes to... Caitlin Clark! ๐—•๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜ ๐—™๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—–๐—ผ๐—น๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ด๐—ฒ ๐—”๐˜๐—ต๐—น๐—ฒ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐Ÿ†
