Clark passes Maravich for NCAA all-time scoring mark

Caitlin Clark scored 35 points — passing LSU legend Pete Maravich for the all-time scoring record in men’s or women’s Division I college basketball — as No. 6 Iowa (26-4, 15-3 Big Ten) defeated No. 2 Ohio State 93-83 on Sunday afternoon in Iowa City, Iowa.

Clark entered the game needing just 18 points to pass Maravich. She broke the record just before halftime by swishing a pair of free throws after Ohio State’s Cotie McMahon was whistled for a technical foul after being called for an offensive foul.
