It was Caitlin Clark’s first visit to New York City. Although the college basketball star who propelled the University of Iowa to the title game in the 2023 NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Tournament was only in town for 24 hours, it was a memorable time because she was named recipient of the 93rd Amateur Athletic Union James E. Sullivan Award at the New York Athletic Club last week.
The other finalists were Dylan Crews, a baseball player at LSU who is now with the Washington Nationals; Jordan Chiles, a collegiate gymnast at UCLA ; Jordan Crooks, a swimmer for the University of Tennessee; Zach Edey, a basketball player with Purdue University; and Kate Douglass, a swimmer and recent graduate of the University of Virginia who began her swimming career at a swimming club affiliated with the NYAC.
