The women's college basketball record book has been rewritten multiple times over the past decade. Several of the sport's all-time scoring leaders have come since 2010.
Washington's Kelsey Plum elevated the game to new heights, setting a new women's basketball record at 3,527 points in a career. Ohio State's Kelsey Mitchell came close, but ended her career in second with 3,402 points.
During the 2023-24 season, two players are chasing history. Iowa's Caitlin Clark has a chance to end her career as the all-time leading scorer in the history of women's college basketball. Syracuse's Dyaisha Fair has cracked the top-10, with a legitimate shot at surprising Brittney Griner and sneaking into the top-five spots.
