Clark is in her fourth year. Maravich compiled his total in three. So Clark has had an extra year.
Furthermore, Clarks' points scored in her freshman year count toward her total.
The 715 points Maravich scored in his freshman year DO NOT. He'd have over 4,300 otherwise.
Not to mention Clark has had the benefit of the three-point line, Maravich did not.
Also, Maravich averaged 44% from the field, Clark 46%, with over half being 3-pointers! Not sure where the 'Clark is a lot better shooter than Pete was' drivel started.

I think Clark needs to play a 5th year (Covid) to really put some distance on all the college basketball stats. She's probably more popular now and getting more in endorsements than she would at the WNBA level, especially since she's breaking all these records. I'm sure there would be plenty more to break next year.

Good stats, but I'll show you another one that stands out my guy...

Pistol took 3166 shots in his 3 years.

Caitlin has taken 2567 shots in 4 years.

Caitlin's taken 599 fewer shots.

She's a 55.55% career shooter from 2 and a 38.05% career shooter from 3.

Overall, she's made 1197 shots. 694 from the 2 pt range for 57.9% and 503 from the 3 pt range for 42.02%.

Using those percentages against the 599 fewer shots taken than Pistol, all things equal for shots, she would be standing at approximately 347 x 2 = 694 + 252 x 3 = 756 pts, or a total of 4753 points.

That's a fricking lot.
