in stages and have to look at it more broadly The Las Vegas Aces, for example, had already started generating increased interest, for example, before Clark was in the league. 2021-22 - 16% increase in viewership. 2022-23 - 21% increase 2023-24 - 174% increase..... part of that was Clark. Part of that was also Cameron Brink, Angel Reese, etc, etc, etc... as well as the increase in viewership in college basketball. Part of that coincided with South Carolina's rise and the increase in marketed players. Clark barely played last year. And she didn't play in every game that every fan watched. Fans were watching womens basketball independently of Clark I think the increase in college basketball contributed to the increase in WNBA, and that goes beyond Clark. I don't think VT fans, for example, increased their attendance at VT games due to Clark. We increased due to winning/Kitley/the product. ** Edited by VAHokie89 at 6/21/2026, 2:00:52 PM
