Last Thursday, Iowa Basketball’s Caitlin Clark broke the NCAA’s all-time scoring record to cement herself as one of the most important college basketball athletes ever. She surpassed 3,527 points against the Michigan Wolverines and the record that was previously held by Kelsey Plum in 13 fewer career games. Clark has mesmerized the world of college basketball with his sharp-shooting skills, showmanship, and competitive spirit everywhere she goes. Seats for games where she will play go for hundreds of dollars and her mere presence breaks TV viewership records. At only 22 years of age, Clark is already making history that her peers can only dream of.

Angel Reese’s surprising reaction to Clark’s record

The times LSU’s Angel Reese has faced Caitlin Clark’s Iowa Hawkeyes have produced some iconic moments in women’s NCAA basketball. That rivalry between them is palpable but Angel Reese had an unexpected reaction of Clark breaking the record. She celebrated with a classy message written for Clark on Angel Reese’s X account. Many initially thought Angel Reese would not react well to Caitlin Clark breaking this record but she handled it well. This is what Reese wrote: “Congratulations Caitlin Clark. KEPP BREAKING RECORDS & MAKING HER-STORY!”

Clark’s achievement was historic-enough to even get Angel Reese to pay her some respect, especially after that unforgettable NCAA women’s championship between the Tigers and the Hawkeyes back in April. Intensity between both stars reached an all-time high during those finals. We will have to wait and see if they meet again this season, which will make this rivalry even more interesting than it already was. For now, Clark has won a new round against Angel Reese, who showed great sportsmanship today.
