In addition to her duties as co-captain, Clark spends time researching the avenue she wants to pursue following graduation—professional basketball.

The path is not unfamiliar to Harvard basketball alumnae—former Crimson guard Emily Tay ’09 took her talents to Germany after a successful collegiate career.

“I want to play wherever I can, so if I can play in the WNBA, I want to play there, and I want to pursue playing overseas in Europe, but I can’t really do too much because of NCAA rules, so a lot of that is going to happen once the season’s over,” Clark said.

But for now, the senior is focusing on the upcoming season and leading her team to the elusive Ivy League title, one which Princeton has had its grip on for four years running.

“Even if I weren’t going to play professionally, I’d still have that desire to finish strong,” Clark said. “I’m still going to keep working hard and keep getting in the gym, and I think that things will happen from that extra work.”
