- Start date
The Caitlin Countdown:
2,813 current career points.
Milestones:
(1) 715 pts needed to break the NCAA record of 3,527 (Kelsey Plum, University of Washington).
-----> Looks like she needs 26 more games to do it (27 ppg x 26 games = 702).
(2) 837 pts needed to break the AIAW record of 3,649 (Lynette Woodard, Kansas University; the AIAW was pre-NCAA)
-----> Looks like she needs 31 more games to do it (27 ppg x 31 games = 837).
(3) On Nov 12, 2023, she passed Megan's 2,804 to become Iowa's All Time Leading Scorer.
Iowa is 3-0 with a projected 31 more games to go. NOTE: during the 2022-2023 season (38 games) we played 29 reg season games, 3 B1G tourney games, and 6 NCAA tourney games to get to our final 31-7 record. This season we should expect around 34 games (29 reg season games plus HOPEFULLY AT LEAST 2 B1G tourney games and AT LEAST 3 NCAA tourney games).

They actually have 30 regular season games this year instead of the 29 they've played the last few years.
Thanks. I updated the above numbers to this:
3,662 Caitlin's projected points
3,649 AIAW record (Lynette Woodard, Kansas)
3,527 NCAA record (Kelsey Plum, University of Washington)
I do believe that moves her into 21st place on the all time NCAA scoring list.

2,804 Career Points, Megan Gustafson (#25 in NCAA History)
...........20.8 ppg, 2015-2019, 135 GP
3,649 Career Points, Lynette Woodard (has the AIAW record, which was pre-NCAA; the NCAA took over the administration of women's basketball for the 1981-82 season; the NCAA has treated the AIAW, the first era of organized collegiate women's basketball, as if it never happened; in 4 years and 139 games played at Kansas from 1978-1981, Lynette was a 4 time All-American and averaged 26.3 points per game; she probably should be considered the current all time D1 and D1 equivalent scoring leader).

Caitlin had 32 points today in Iowa's win over Kansas State.
2,954: Current Career Points.
27.2 ppg Career Ave in her first 100 Games (thru her junior season)
Milestones, with a projected 27 more games this season:
(1) 449 pts needed to break the Big Ten record of 3,402 (Kelsey Mitchell, Ohio State; 2015-2018; 139 GP; 24.5 ppg)
-----> Looks like she needs roughly 17 more games to do it (27 ppg x 17 games = 459).
(2) 574 pts needed to break the NCAA record of 3,527 (Kelsey Plum, University of Washington; 2014-2017; 139 GP; 25.4 ppg).
-----> Looks like she needs roughly 21 more games to do it (27 ppg x 21 games = 567).
(3) 696 pts needed to break the AIAW record of 3,649 (Lynette Woodard, Kansas University; the AIAW was pre-NCAA; she played from 1978-1981; 139 GP; 26.3 ppg)
-----> Looks like she needs roughly 26 more games to do it (27 ppg x 26 games = 702).
(4) On Nov 12, 2023, Caitlin passed Megan's 2,804 to become Iowa's All Time Leading Scorer.
Iowa is now 7-1 with a projected 27 more games to go this season. NOTE: during the 2022-2023 season (38 games) we played 29 reg season games, 3 B1G tourney games, and 6 NCAA tourney games to get to our final 31-7 record. This season we should expect around 35 games (30 reg season games plus HOPEFULLY AT LEAST 2 B1G tourney games and AT LEAST 3 NCAA tourney games).
Caitlin's 4 year Career Points Projection:
2,717 pts to start the 2023-2024 season (100 Games)
945 projected pts for 2023-2024 (35 games x 27ppg career ave)
..........................................
3,662 Projected Points by end of 2023-2024 season (new NCAA & ALL TIME record)

She's currently 16th on the career scoring list. It's remarkable that she's played 108 games to accumulate these stratospheric numbers compared to other players on the list well over 110 and much higher.
Caitlin is on pace to break the all time AIAW/NCAA scoring record of 3,649 (Lynette Woodard, Kansas, 4 time All-American, 139 games played, 26.3 points per game, 1978-1981).
The 3 point shot was not around when Lynette played. Caitlin has made 382 threes so far in her career, where, if she played in the era when Lynette played, those 382 points would not have counted.
Not discounting Caitlin at all, of course. Just pointing out how the 3 point shot has changed everything.
I believe Caitlin is 20th in all time assists. She had 794 (213 Freshman Year, 256 Sophomore Year and 325 Junior Year) coming into the year and has 60 this season for a total of 854. She'll likely end up in the top ten, but would need the fifth year to break the record.
She needs 34 more assists to pass Sam Logic. She 19th all time in NCAA assists.
When I played (terrible at it) as a sprinter I could win those dribble runs from end to end but we had to keep our hand on the top of the ball. The way they dribble now would be carrying the ball. This new tyle allows you to keep your head up and turn the corner, both very difficult in the old days
