Caitlin Clark celebrates former Iowa teammate Gabbie Marshall's engagement with heartfelt reaction

Caitlin Clark, the Indiana Fever superstar and former Iowa Hawkeyes legend, showed her enduring friendship with ex-teammate Gabbie Marshall by enthusiastically congratulating her on a major personal milestone. Marshall recently announced her engagement, sparking joy across the basketball community and highlighting the lasting bonds from their time together at Iowa.

Gabbie Marshall was a key part of that success. As a four-year starter, she appeared in 166 games with 137 starts, providing elite defense and leadership that complemented Clark’s scoring prowess. Together, they helped the Hawkeyes secure three straight Big Ten Tournament titles and multiple deep NCAA Tournament runs. Their on-court chemistry translated into a genuine off-court friendship that has stood the test of time.

She wrote, “2-18-26 WE’RE ENGAGED!! So excited for this next chapter of our lives!"

The post drew congratulations from former teammates and fans. Marshall, who pursued a master’s degree in occupational therapy at the University of North Carolina after college instead of a pro basketball career, continues to stay connected with her Iowa roots.

Adding extra excitement, Marshall and Touro, a former University of Iowa student with a background in sport and recreation, are relocating to Indianapolis. Touro recently accepted a job there, meaning the couple will now live in the same city as Clark and the Indiana Fever. This move could open the door for more in-person hangouts between the longtime friends.
