Coco Gauff and Ben Shelton have reacted to Iowa Hawkeyes star player Caitlin Clark becoming the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer in women’s basketball.
In the game between the Michigan Wolverines and Iowa, Clark broke the previous record held by former Washington guard Kelsey Plum of 3,527 points. Clark achieved this remarkable feat by sinking a 3-pointer from near the logo during the first quarter.
Clark only required eight points to surpass Plum’s record, but she far exceeded expectations. She concluded the game with a career-high 49 points, equalling her personal best with nine successful 3-pointers. She also contributed 13 assists and her performance led the Hawkeyes to a resounding 106-89 victory over the Wolverines.
The official ESPN pages took to social media platforms and shared Caitlin Clark’s match statistics. The post included a video capturing her scoring the 3-pointer from the left wing near the Mediacom Court logo with 7:45 left in the first quarter.
Coco Gauff and Ben Shelton took to social media to re-share ESPN’s video of Clark scoring the three-pointer.
“@caitlinclark22 🔥 ,” Gauff captioned her Instagram story.
“Crazy atmosphere. Big time @caitlinclark22,” Shelton captioned his Instagram story.
