Caitlin Clark moves to No. 2 on all-time NCAA scoring list as fans waited around block to get in
Caitlin Clark continued to show why shes one of the greatest womens basketball players on the planet on Wednesday night as the Iowa star moved into second on the NCAA women’s basketballs career scoring list.
A layup against Northwestern with 4:58 left on the clock in the second quarter moved Clark to 3,403 points for her career and put her past Ohio States Kelsey Mitchell on the all-time list in the Hawkeyes’ 110-74 win
The basket was also Clarks 14th point of the game at that point and occurred after she had already jumped to third earlier in the contest off a 3-pointer with 2:04 left in the first quarter.
She finished the night with a game-high 35 points on 11 of 22 shooting with 10 assists.
You dont really think about it too much,” Clark said of the record after the game in an interview with Peacock. “You just come out every single night and play your game and have fun. This is kind of what comes with it. Like I said, Im just grateful to be able to do it with these girls. I love them to death. These coaches, they put me in positions to be successful and Ive had a lot of good teammates in my time here. I cant do it without all them. I cant do it without coach Lisa Bluder letting me have the keys to the offense.
” Its cool to be in the same vicinity as some of those names. A lot of people I grew up idolizing and looking up to. Definitely special for me.”

Wednesday nights contest at Northwestern was a hot ticket as Clark and the Hawkeyes made their way to Evanston, Illinois.
Fans had wrapped around a sold-out Welsh-Ryan Arena two whole hours before tip-off waiting to get in, according to a video from the Chicago Tribune.
This was one that was definitely circled on my calendar, just because I know the amount of Iowa fans in the Chicago area, Clark said after the game, per the Associated Press. So I was super excited to come here. I love this gym.
