Iowa Hawkeyes star Caitlin Clark set the mark for most points scored in a Big Ten Tournament on Saturday against Michigan in their semifinals win.
Caitlin Clark scored 28 points in Iowa’s 95-68 destruction of Michigan in the Big Ten Tournament semifinals on Saturday night and set another mark in the process. Clark set the record for most points in a Big Ten Women’s Basketball Tournament with 297 and became the first Division 1 women’s player to score at least 1,000 points in at least two seasons, according to ESPN. She has 1,020 points to her total this year as she broke Pete Maravich’s all-time scoring mark.
Iowa will play Nebraska for the Big Ten Championship. The Cornhuskers stunned Iowa in February as the Iowa sharpshooter was nearing the NCAA Division 1 women’s basketball record. 'I pack for three days,' she told reporters after the win over Michigan. 'That’s all we know. That’s just what we do.' Clark surpassed former Ohio State great Kelsey Mitchell for the Big Ten Tournament mark.
Obviously breaking the Big Ten record is something that's really hard to do,' she said of the record, via ESPN. 'These games are never guaranteed. You can come here and just play one game, and it can be over. I'm really grateful to play the maximum number of games every season I've had of this tournament. That is probably the only reason I have this record.' Clark is playing in her final Big Ten Tournament.
Iowa was the national runner-up last season after losing in the championship to LSU. The Associated Press contributed to this report. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
