Caitlin Clark’s dad was not having any of his daughter’s nonsense on Saturday.
Clark scored 27 points with 7 rebounds and 10 assists while leading No. 1-seeded Iowa to a 91-65 win over Holy Cross in the first round of the women’s NCAA Tournament. But the game didn’t go as smoothly as Clark would have liked.
The team’s play was “clunky” at times, the Iowa star said after the game. Clark also argued with the officials during the game, which led her father to get upset while watching from the stands at Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City, Iowa.
“Stop,” Brent Clark could be seen yelling at his daughter during the second quarter.

Clark appeared to be complaining about the lack of a foul call prior to that exchange.
Her dad also seemed fed up with his daughter’s play during the first half.

Maybe it’s that type of no-nonsense attitude that has helped mold Clark into the player she has become. Fans appreciated her father’s harsh stance toward her.
