Records, until broken, withstand the test of time. On the left is a 5’7” guard who played at Francis Marion during a time where women’s college basketball was played under the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW). During her collegiate career, Naismith Basketball Hall of Famer Pearl Moore scored 4061pts. After big-named schools moved to the NCAA in the early 1980s and a federal antitrust lawsuit, the AIAW dissolved, but their records never died. In the NCAA, Caitlin Clark stands alone at the top of points scored. While what Clark has done in the women’s game is impressive, we cannot yet say that she owns the all-time record in women’s college basketball history. That,still, belongs to Pearl Moore; a record that is 45 years old.
