At the Iowa State Fair, which runs from Aug. 10 to 20, a butter sculpture of Clark was revealed, taking the legend of Clark to a new level. 

Republican Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds posted a photo alongside Clark’s butter sculpture on Thursday, along with the famous Iowa State Butter Cow, which dates back to 1911. 

Clark is not the only Iowa athlete to be featured in butter, with Pro Football Hall of Famer Kurt Warner and Jack Trice, Iowa State’s first African-American athlete, also receiving the honor.

Clark and the Hawkeyes became household names after defeating South Carolina in the Final Four, snapping a 42-game winning streak for the Gamecocks. 

They went on to lose to LSU in the most-viewed women’s college basketball game on record, with 9.9 million viewers tuning in, according to ESPN.

The University of Iowa was forced to pause the selling of season tickets in April for the 2023-24 season due to high demand. 

Clark will be eligible to enter the WNBA Draft in 2024, though she could use her COVID-19 fifth year of eligibility. 

"I have another year here [Iowa] and possibly one more after that just because of that. I probably will have to make a decision on that sometime next year. I really have no clue what I’m going to do. Stay for an extra year or leave after next year," Clark said on "The Dan Patrick Show" in February.
