It seems unlikely a male will surpass this. The really good male players only play one year in college, and most certainly don't make it four years.

Did she score those points against men?

Pistol Pete played 3 years

Freshmen played on the freshman team back then

Good for her.

One comment. "Pistol" Pete Maravich played men's basketball. Clark is playing women's basketball.

That's all.

No one said she did.

I don’t think this means she is better than Maravich, but she scored more points against her relative competition.

Pistol Pete took 35 shots a game. Clark shot 20 a game.
But, Pete had no 3 point line either.

I doubt any lottery picks go two years.

Simply amazing feat by a female player from my Alma Mater.

It's silly. It's like comparing Jackie Joyner-Kersee to Carl Lewis.

No reason to bring in Pistol Pete into the conversation. Just my two cents.

Yeah I watched the entire game. Clark did not miss many 3 pointers. Never seen so many 3 pointers in one game by one player.

The most amazing part is:

If Pete Maravich had only thought of identifying as female, who knows how many points he’d have scored?

For those of us who never notice women's basketball:

I was living in Chicagoland when the Bulls were wining championship year after year. I do not recall even MJ scoring that many deadly 3-pointers.

3 pointers are very hard to defend. The superior #2 national rated Ohio buckeyes had no defense against Cailtin Clark’s 3 pointers.

A great accomplishment! I didn’t see how many games she’s played in vs. Pete Maravich, but it’s still a great accomplishment.

A ridiculous and deceptive comparison. Had she played against men, she would be a mediocre nobody.

Fantastic athlete and I wish her well! But I think if LeBron transgenders he could beat her record!
