Iowa legends Caitlin Clark and Kate Martin received unfortunate news when it was announced that former Hawkeyes radio analyst Jamie Cavey-Lang passed away on Saturday after a hard-fought battle with cancer.

She was 41 years old.

Like Clark and Martin, Cavey-Lang was also a standout player at Iowa before becoming a media personality. She finished with 1,265 career points and was a three-time Academic All-Big Ten honoree and two-time All-Big Ten selection.

Clark, who now stars for the Indiana Fever, paid tribute to Cavey-Lang on her Instagram Story, sharing a picture of them and saying she will forever cherish their “special memories.”

Martin, who will suit up for the Golden State Valkyries next season, also wrote a poignant message after learning of Cavey-Lang’s passing.

Martin spent five years with the Hawkeyes.

Cavey-Lang first joined the Iowa radio booth in 2016 until she stepped away after the 2022-23 season due to her condition.

Current Hawkeyes head coach Jan Jensen, who had the pleasure of knowing Cavey-Lang for years, also expressed her admiration for her late friend. 

“Jamie Cavey-Lang has joined the angels,” wrote Jensen on X. “Her beautiful spirit brought joy, fun & love to all she touched. A Hawkeye All-B1G Post, an incredible person & my friend.”

On Instagram, the Hawkeyes described Cavey-Lang as “the voice of all our favorite memories” and “an incredible friend and mother.”
