Caitlin Clark, Ilona Maher, Haley and Hanna Cavinder Named to Forbes' '30 Under 30'

Forbes released its annual 30 under 30 lists Wednesday where the publication recognizes 30 of the most impactful people who are under 30 years old in different fields, and it showed plenty of love to some of the biggest stars in women's sports.

Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark, rugby Olympic medalist Ilona Maher, and Miami basketball players Haley and Hanna Cavinder were all included on the list.

That Clark is on the list comes as no surprise.

She became one of the faces of the WNBA in her first season while taking home the Rookie of the Year and breaking the league single-season assist record. Clark also led the Fever to the playoffs for the first time since the 2016 campaign.

What's more, she helped drive a record-setting season for the WNBA in terms of viewership and attendance.

According to the Sports Business Journal, Clark played in 19 of the record 22 regular-season games that drew more than one million viewers. Those numbers may only increase in the future as she becomes even more adjusted to the professional level.

As for Maher, she became the face of the United States women's rugby team that took home the bronze medal at the Paris Games. It was the U.S.'s first Olympic rugby medal, but she became a star outside the lines as well through social media and an appearance on Dancing With The Stars.

She didn't just appear on Dancing With The Stars, she finished in second place overall in the most recent season.

The Cavinder twins have also become sensations on social media and have partnerships with companies including Under Armour. They also co-founded the cosmetics brand Hustle Beauty and the fitness app TWOgether.

Haley and Hanna are clear-cut examples of the success college athletes can find in the modern era of name, image and likeness opportunities.
