Caitlin and Connor’s relationship began in April 2023, during their time at the University of Iowa, where both were athletes. Caitlin made waves as a basketball phenom for the Hawkeyes, while Connor was a standout baseball player, often playing corner outfield and first base. After graduating in 2023, Connor shifted his career path, moving into coaching. He first worked with the Indiana Pacers before joining Butler University in 2024 as an assistant coach for the men’s basketball team. Caitlin, on the other hand, continues to shine in the WNBA with the Indiana Fever, where she looks forward to the start of the new season in May 2025.
