University of Iowa's Caitlin Clark on Sunday beat the all-time NCAA basketball points record that was set more than half a century ago by the late Pete Maravich, making her the highest-scoring college basketball athlete of all-time. 

Clark, 22, broke "Pistol Pete's" NCAA record of 3,667 points with a free throw shortly before halftime at the Carver-Hawkeye Arena against Ohio State, per the New York Post

Maravich set the record over three seasons when he played for Louisiana State University from 1967-1970.
