Part 5/7:
Underlying this chaos is a deeper underlying aspect of sports culture—respect for those who came before and the narratives that evolve around them. Some fans assert that historical context should be honored. Discussions about who "wore the number first" have emerged, with fans proposing a shout-out to players like Christy Sides and Stephanie White, who have also worn the number 22. This brings to light ongoing debates about legacy and recognition in women's sports.
As conversations rage on, it appears that both sides are unwilling to back down. Fans devoted to Clark express unwavering support, claiming that struggles of externals should not detract from Iowa’s honor. Meanwhile, many Wilson supporters argue for equal recognition of her contributions to the game.
