WHEN I was watching Caitlin Clark’s US NCAA tournament highlights, the Golden State Warriors’ Steph Curry and the Women’s National Basketball Association’s Phoenix Mercury’s Diana Taurasi came to mind.
She has unlimited range and what makes her a tough cover for anyone is she can drive either left or right and finish at the basket with either hand so if you’re defending her, you’re better off funneling her to drive down the middle into the heart of your defense where your bigs are waiting. But she’ll pass the ball to her wide open teammate at the very last minute as the defender commits as Clark sucks in the defense.
The previous women’s record was held by Sheryl Swoopes, who scored 177 total points for Texas Tech in 1993 as she led them to the school’s only national championship. In the men’s tournament, the record belongs to Glen Rice, who scored 184 points for Michigan to carry them to what was also their only national championship in 1989.
Clark’s eight assists in the title game on Sunday took her to 60 for the tournament and an even 10 per game average. The 60 total assists set a new record for a player in single women’s tournament. She fell just shy of Mark Wade’s 61 assists for UNLV in 1987, which is the men’s mark.”
