IOWA CITY, Iowa -- Caitlin Clark has joked about being nicknamed "Ponytail Pete" in recognition of how her game resembles that of "Pistol Pete" Maravich.
On Sunday in her last regular-season home game, the Iowa Hawkeyes star passed the LSU and NBA legend for the most points scored by a Division I basketball player, men's or women's.
On senior day at Carver-Hawkeye Arena, Clark entered the game against Big Ten regular-season champion Ohio State needing 18 points to pass Maravich, who scored 3,667 points in his three seasons at LSU from 1967-70.
Clark did it with .3 seconds remaining before halftime with two free throws.
