Caitlin Clark Sets New NCAA Scoring Record

"Caitlin Clark Makes History: Breaking NCAA Women's Basketball Scoring Record with a Stellar Performance"


Caitlin Clark achieved a historic milestone in NCAA women's basketball by breaking the career scoring record previously held by Kelsey Plum. This remarkable feat took place during the Iowa Hawkeyes' game against the Michigan Wolverines.

 

Clark's record-breaking moment occurred early in the game when she scored a deep three-pointer, surpassing Plum's 3,527-point mark. She continued to dominate, finishing the game with an impressive 49 points, setting a new career-high and also establishing a single-game record for Iowa women's basketball. Her total career points now stand at 3,569.

 

The historic shot occurred just over two minutes into the game, prompting a timeout called by Iowa head coach Lisa Bluder to allow teammates and fans to celebrate the achievement. In a halftime interview, Clark expressed gratitude for the support she receives from the city, friends, and those who inspire her to excel.

 

Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti and various sports legends, including Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, congratulated Clark in a prerecorded video. Clark's outstanding contributions to women's basketball were recognized, with expectations of more greatness in the future.

 

Throughout the season, Clark has maintained impressive averages of 32.1 points and 8.3 assists per game, the highest in NCAA Division 1 women's basketball. She also leads in three-pointers per game with 5.2. This season, she became the sixth woman to achieve 1,000 career assists and the only player in NCAA Division I history to surpass 3,000 points while reaching 1,000 assists.

 

Clark is now on track to potentially break the all-time Division I scoring record of 3,667 points held by LSU's Pete Maravich. With only 99 points away, she has four regular-season games and additional tournament opportunities ahead to secure this record.

 

Whether or not she achieves the milestone in the regular season, the No. 4-ranked Hawkeyes are set to compete in the Big 10 and NCAA tournaments, providing further chances for Clark to make history.

U.S. Imposes 500+ Sanctions on Russia Following Navalny's Death

" U.S. Imposes Extensive Sanctions on Russia Following Navalny's Death "   The Biden administration has announced a sweeping set of over 500 new sanctions on Russia, responding to the recent death of dissident Alexei Navalny . The primary aim is to restrict the significant energy revenue that has been funding President Vladimir Putin's actions in Ukraine.
