Caitlin Clark Sets new record in NCAA Women’s Basketball by Surpassing Kelsey Plum’s All-Time Career Points Record

Entering the match against the Michigan Wolverines with 3,520 points, Clark was only seven points away from overtaking Plum’s record of 3,527, set in 2017. She achieved this milestone in the first quarter of the game.

This momentous shot was made with 7:44 left in the first quarter at Kinnick Stadium, University of Iowa. After receiving an inbound pass, Clark dribbled briefly before making a long-range shot that went directly through the net, eliciting thunderous applause from the audience in recognition of her remarkable accomplishment.

Looking ahead, expectations were high for Clark to break the record in an earlier game against Nebraska, but the Cornhuskers’ staunch defence postponed the achievement to the subsequent match.

This season, Clark has maintained an impressive average of 32.1 points per game, indicating the inevitability of her record-breaking performance in this particular game.

With only four games left in the regular season, Clark is on track to elevate the benchmark for future athletes. The Hawkeyes are scheduled to face Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota, and Ohio State.

However, Clark’s historic achievement was partly eclipsed by controversy over the broadcast of the game, which was exclusively available on the Peacock streaming service owned by NBCUniversal.

The decision to stream the game exclusively online led to widespread discontent among fans on social media, who had hoped for traditional television coverage. Despite these protests, the network proceeded with its streaming-only approach.
