Caitlin Clark Shatters Major Women's College Basketball Scoring Record

Iowa's Caitlin Clark surpasses Lynette Woodard to become the all-time leading scorer, igniting discussions on the recognition of historical women's sports achievements.

Caitlin Clark has become the all-time leading scorer in major women's college basketball, surpassing Lynette Woodard's record with 3,650 career points.
Clark's achievement was marked by a 33-point game in Iowa's 108-60 victory over Minnesota, also setting the NCAA single-season record for 3-pointers with 156.
The record-breaking performance has reignited discussions about the recognition of women's sports achievements prior to NCAA governance, highlighting the contributions of AIAW athletes.
Clark is now just 17 points shy of Pete Maravich's all-time NCAA Division I scoring record, with one regular season game left against Ohio State.
The accomplishment has brought attention to the need for inclusivity in recognizing historical achievements in women's sports, with calls for the NCAA to honor records set during the AIAW era.
