Caitlin Clark 51 points from Pete Maravich's record as Iowa hits road against Minnesota

The Iowa Hawkeyes hit the road for the final time this regular season as they take on Minnesota, and Caitlin Clark's pursuit of the NCAA all-time scoring mark continues in what is expected to be another sellout crowd.

During her last game, Clark scored 24 points and added 15 rebounds and 10 assists for the Hawkeyes (24-4, 13-3 Big Ten) in a 101-85 victory over Illinois. It was her fifth triple-double this season and 16th of her career.

She made five 3-pointers against Illinois, and now she needs seven 3s to break the NCAA’s all-time record in a single season. Clark has made a 3-pointer in 85 consecutive games.

Iowa has won nine of its past 10 meetings against Minnesota (15-12, 5-11).
