Heading into the 2014-15 season, the top 5 career three-pointers made in UConn history:
1. 318 -------------------------------- Diana Taurasi
(318-811), 144 games, 2001-04
2. 311 ---------------------------------- Maya Moore
--------------(311-769), 154 games, 2007-11
3. 290 --------------------------------- Ann Strother
--------------(290-770), 143 games, 2002-06
4. 279 --------------------------------- Wendy Davis
--------------(279-635), 127 games, 1989-92
5. 277 --------------Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis
--------------(277-642), 104 games, 2011-14
The NCAA-wide record is 392 at the hands of Kansas State's Laurie Koehn.
KML, then, needed 115 treys this season to reach Koehn's record. Assuming UConn plays at least 38 games (i.e., national semis at worst), she'd need to average just over 1 trey a game to break Diana's UConn record and just over three a game to match or break the NCAA record.
Well, KML hit 10 three-pointers tonight. That's above her needed per-game averages to say the least.
KML broke Wendy Davis's single-season record in 2012-13. In her first game this season, Kaleena is now above Wendy's career at #4 on the all-time career list.
Annie is only three ahead of KML, but she's going be down to #4 very, very soon.
I'd kind of like to make this a season-long thread as Kaleena pursues an amazing record. She's as great a distance shooter as we've ever had, and I'd love to see her name atop the UConn list AND the NCAA list.
She hit 118 treys as a sophomore; she can meet or exceed that tally this season. Go KML!!!
