Maybe the most anticlimactic record breaking moment ever. Congrats! 

I loved that it came on a Technical free throw.   It just illustrates how great her all around game.   We know she can hit the logo threes, but she takes just as much pride in the little things.

Just showing she could play in the NBA, if she wanted to.

Lebron would be proud.

In all seriousness, she's a phenomenal basketball player.

From College Hoops on FOX via Facebook:

How it started vs. How it’s going ? 

At its peak, the game Sunday against Ohio State gathered nearly 4.5 million viewers on FOX.   The most to tune in for a women's regular season game in 25 years.

@DragonFire I thought you might find this tweet interesting. Probably doesn't factor in free throws though.

Touché.

Of course, that assumes she hits the same amount of shot percentage on all those shots.  But it's a very fair point and one I had not considered. 

Also worth noting that 27 games in to her JUNIOR year (emphasis from the Tweet) would have been 89 games, six more than Pete played in his career. There's no ninja math anyone is going to be able to come up with to get around the fact that Pete scored a significant amount per game than Caitlyn, and there's really no circumstance that realistically that isn't going to be true. 

Props to her, I just really hate when they constantly compare the women's game to the men's game. They're not the same, and they will never be the same.
