Iowa guard Caitlin Clark entered Thursday's game against Michigan needing eight points to break the women's all-time NCAA scoring record.
Clark made sure the record went down in a hurry, needing less than three minutes to hit the record-breaking shot.
Iowa took the opening tip, and Clark made her way to the basket and hit a bank shot to open the game. On Iowa's next possession, she set up on the left wing and launched a three, hitting nothing but nylon.
A few minutes later, Clark took a pass in transition, heaved a 35-foot shot from the Mediacom Court logo, and buried it for the record, sending the sellout crowd at Carver-Hawkeye Arena into a frenzy.
Clark finished with an Iowa record 49 points (the 12th career game of her scoring 40 or more points), hitting nine three-pointers and dishing out 13 assists in the 106-89 victory over the Wolverines.
