Quick Glance: Caitlin Clark Honored for Historic Collegiate Career in Iowa

The Iowa women's basketball program announced the official retirement of jersey No. 22 in recognition of Caitlin Clark, following the conclusion of her college career on Sunday with the Hawkeyes' loss to South Carolina in the NCAA tournament national championship game.

Moving forward, no Iowa players will wear the iconic No. 22 jersey. Clark now joins Megan Gustafson (No. 10) as one of the three players from the Iowa women's basketball team to have her number retired.

The decision was revealed by Iowa's Athletics Director, Beth Goetz, on Wednesday night at the Carver-Hawkeye Arena in the presence of Clark and the fans.

Clark has officially entered the WNBA draft scheduled for Monday, April 15. She is anticipated to be the top pick, selected by the Indiana Fever.

Quick Glance: Hush Money Trial: Trump's Silent Encounter with Insults

Donald Trump has been forced to listen to potential jurors in his criminal hush money trial in New York openly criticize him.

Transitioning from a life of adulation to facing critics, Trump now experiences a different reality without the control he's accustomed to.

Previously shielded from critique, Trump now faces a trial with potential felony convictions and will have to endure listening to more criticism.

Potential jurors exhibited a range of opinions towards Trump, from admiration for his business acumen to open criticism of his persona and rhetoric.
