MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. -- Iowa guard Caitlin Clark continued her record-breaking quest Wednesday as she passed Kansas Jayhawks legend Lynette Woodard for the major-college women's basketball scoring record in the Hawkeyes' 108-60 victory over Minnesota.

Clark scored her 33rd point on a 3-pointer at the 4:29 mark of the fourth quarter against the Gophers, giving her 3,650 points. Woodard played in the final years of the AIAW, from 1977-1981, and scored 3,649 points.

Clark also broke the NCAA women's single-season 3-point record in Wednesday game; she hit 8 treys and is now at 157 for the season.
