In a stunning display of skill, Caitlin Clark, the Iowa Hawkeyes' star player, has shattered the single-season three-pointers-made record in NCAA Division I basketball. Previously held in a three-way tie with Golden State Warriors All-Star Steph Curry and former Liberty guard Darius McGhee at 162 three-pointers, Clark's exceptional performance in the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinal against Penn State propelled her to a new milestone.

Despite a somewhat lackluster shooting performance, Clark managed to claim the record in the fourth quarter of the game. While she led the Hawkeyes in points with 24 that night, her field goal percentage of 5-of-19, including 2-of-14 from beyond the arc, left room for improvement. Nevertheless, those two three-pointers marked her entry into the record books, establishing a new benchmark for future players.

The spotlight on Clark has been intense, with fans flocking to witness her phenomenal talent. The Big Ten Tournament at the Target Center in Minneapolis was sold out for the first time ever, attracting over 109,000 spectators eager to witness history in the making. The attention surrounding Clark has reached unprecedented levels, with comparisons drawn to Curry's college career at Davidson back in 2008. Curry himself acknowledged the impact of social media on the current wave of attention Clark is receiving, expressing astonishment at the frenzy surrounding her achievements.

This milestone is just one of many for Clark this season. On March 3, she surpassed Pete Maravich's career points record of 3,617, achieved over three seasons at LSU. Clark's incredible abilities and records have solidified her position as one of the most dominant players in the history of college basketball.

Looking ahead, Clark has made her intentions clear: she will be entering the WNBA Draft once her journey with the Hawkeyes concludes. The performance of Iowa in the Big Ten Tournament will determine when that will be, as it follows a single-elimination format. However, regardless of the outcome, Iowa has secured a spot in the NCAA Tournament. The team's seeding for the tournament will be revealed on March 17 during Selection Sunday.

As Caitlin Clark continues to rewrite the record books, her success has captivated the basketball world. Her exceptional talent and determination have propelled her to new heights, and fans eagerly await her next move, both in the NCAA Tournament and her future professional career.
