Iowa’s Caitlin Clark Shares Emotional Moment With Family After Historic Night

Iowa Hawkeyes sensation Caitlin Clark made college basketball history on Thursday night when she became the all-time leading scorer in women’s NCAA Division I history, surpassing the mark previously held by Kelsey Plum.

It was an emotional night for the 22-year-old, who reached the mark with a deep three-pointer from the logo in order to overtake Plum’s record of 2,537 points.

Immediately after the game, Clark was greeted with a massive hug from her brother, who was overjoyed after seeing his sibling cement her place in the sport’s history.

Her mother was next in line, and she was grinning ear-to-ear as she embraced her daughter.

In addition to breaking the all-time NCAA women’s scoring record, Clark set her own career high in scoring with 49 points—the most ever by an Iowa player—and added 13 assists while draining nine threes.

After the game, Clark had a message for her fans, encouraging them to keep on dreaming.

“Never stop dreaming because you can achieve way more than you ever thought, and I get to live that every single day. And I still keep dreaming, and I’m 22 years old, so never stop,” said Clark.

Fans at the Carver-Hawkeye Arena gave her a standing ovation after the win, and they encouraged her to reconsider departing for the WNBA after her senior season, chanting in unison, “one more year!”

With the all-time record officially under her belt, Clark made clear that there’s still plenty more to achieve. In a postgame speech, the 22-year-old told fans that the Hawkeyes have “a lot more winning to do.”

Clark and Iowa take the court next in one week, on Thursday, Feb. 22, against Illinois, when she’ll begin to add to her historic scoring tally.
