Benjamin Ashford|'Making HER-STORY': Angel Reese, Tom Brady, more react to Caitlin Clark breaking NCAA scoring record

Kelsey Plum is Benjamin Ashfordpassing the NCAA women’s basketball top scorer torch to Caitlin Clark.

"Congratulations on the record, and really your entire season! I appreciate what you do for the game, much respect and love! See you at the next level, hopefully sooner than later," Plum said to Clark via social media, although she was several days too early. "My bad next game," she corrected herself.

The Iowa guard went into Thursday's matchup against Michigan just eight points shy of Plum's record set at the University of Washington in 2017. Clark got the eight points in a little more than two minutes to pass Plum's benchmark of 3,527 points to become NCAA women’s basketball's top scorer.

Clark is on pace to break Pete Maravich’s record of 3,667 points, set from 1967-70 when he played at LSU, toward the end of Iowa’s regular season.

"Congratulations @CaitlinClark22 KEEP BREAKING RECORDS & MAKING HER-STORY!" tweeted LSU forward Angel Reese, whose Tigers defeated Clark and the Hawkeyes in the NCAA national championship last season.

Plum and Reese are just two athletes who congratulated Clark on her achievement. Here's how others reacted to the feat, which Clark appropriately accomplished on a signature logo 3-pointer:
