Ep. 5: Bigger than Caitlin Clark: How Indianapolis is building a women’s sports movement
In the series finale of Beyond Clarkonomics, host Mickey Shuey explores how Indianapolis is building a long-term vision for women’s sports—one that began before Caitlin Clark’s arrival and is designed to outlast any single player. As the Fever’s star power accelerates momentum, civic and sports leaders are executing a decades-long strategy to make Indianapolis a global capital of women’s athletics. From the Indy Ignite pro volleyball team and women’s tackle football to the Indiana Sports Corp.’s 2050 Vision, this episode traces the city’s expansive infrastructure investments, emerging youth programs and national ambitions. Featuring insights from leaders at the Fever, Pacers Sports & Entertainment, Indiana Sports Corp., NCAA, Marvella Foundation and others, the episode asks: Can Indy become the epicenter of women’s sports—and what happens if the star who supercharged the movement is no longer in the mix?
