L.S.U.’s Angel Reese has been big on the boards all year. On Sunday, she has a chance to set a record.
Reese has recorded 33 double-doubles this season, averaging 23.3 points and 15.6 rebounds. She currently sits tied atop women’s Division I for double-doubles in a season, with Courtney Paris of Oklahoma, who accomplished the feat in the seasons ending in 2006 and 2007; Natalie Butler of George Mason in 2018; and Megan Gustafson of Iowa in 2019.
If Reese manages a double-double in Sunday’s N.C.A.A. women’s basketball final against Iowa, it will be her 34th, setting her alone at the top of the list.
