Caitlin Clark came by her skills naturally, as her father, Brent Clark, is a former athlete. During his time at Simpson College in the late ’80s, Brent played two sports, baseball and basketball. Later, Brent became a coach and even coached Caitlin as a child. Needless to say, she was pushing the glass ceiling even back then. “I think it was the 2nd grade, AAU state tournament,” Brent said about one of Caitlin’s early games, according to KCCI 8. “It was a boys tournament. Well, they ended up winning the tournament. One of the mothers complained because ‘a girl shouldn’t be allowed to play in a boys tournament.’ So, I always kind of chuckle about that.” He continued. “I can just remember her doing things in 3rd and 4th grade that were pretty special.”
However, Brent also has experience within the corporate world. The former coach currently works as the Vice President of Operations for Concentric International, a products and services company involved in agricultural and industrial sectors. According to his company bio, Brent has 25 years of experience in “sales, marketing and operations management,” and the company appears to be quite successful.
