Caitlin Clark. Maddie Meyer/Getty Images The most famous college athlete in America is ready to go pro. Caitlin Clark , the Iowa Hawkeyes guard who has taken the nation by storm with her prolific scoring, clutch shot-making and logo-distance range announced on Thursday, February 29, that she will enter the WNBA Draft after the 2023-24 college season. Though Clark is a senior, she has one year of college eligibility remaining due to the so-called “COVID year” that the NCAA granted student-athletes in 2020-21. After already leading Iowa to the National Championship Game last season and breaking the women’s College Basketball all-time scoring record, however, Clark feels she is ready for the next step. “It is impossible to fully express my gratitude to everyone who has supported me during my time at Iowa,” Clark wrote via X on Thursday. “My teammates, who made the last four years the best; my coaches, trainers, and staff who

The Daytona 500 ended under caution when Ross Chastain attempted to take the lead with a daring three-wide pass up the middle, but instead collided with Austin Cindric. William Byron claimed victory under caution, leading a Hendrick Motorsports 1-2 in the season-opener. Alex Bowman was second and Christopher Bell third. NASCAR now heads to the state of Georgia at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Byron is the most recent Cup Series winner at the track, but Joey Logano is the defending winner of the spring race there. This race has some added importance this year as its second date has been moved inside the playoffs.

Lars Nielsen discovered the large, ornately decorated gold ring, set with a red semiprecious stone, while exploring Emmerlev, a parish in Southern Jutland, Denmark, according to a translated statement . The ring dates to the fifth or sixth century. "Such a unique and one-of-a-kind find is completely surreal ," Nielsen said in the statement.  Researchers at the National Museum of Denmark determined that the piece of jewelry has much "historical significance" and may have belonged to local royalty connected to the Merovingians, a dynasty of Frankish kings who ruled over parts of what is now France, Belgium and Germany between the fifth and eighth centuries.  "The gold ring not only reveals a possible new princely family in Emmerlev, but also connects the area with one of Europe's largest
