All-Time Women's Basketball Scoring Record Broken At SXU
SXU Women's Basketball star Kara Krolicki has broken the school's all-time record for points.
CHICAGO, IL - The Saint Xavier University women's basketball program has a new all-time points leader. Senior guard Kara Krolicki broke the previous school record for points scored in a career when she put in a game-high 25 in a Dec. 28 Cougars' win over visiting Goshen (Ind.) at the Shannon Center. Krolicki's mark was at 2,331 career points scored after the game, topping the previous record held by former SXU star Morgan Stuut.
Krolicki is in her fourth year at SXU, having played high school basketball in Chicagoland at Lincoln-Way East High School. It was a three-pointer she hit with under two minutes to go in the third quarter against Goshen that gave her the record, according to SXU Sports Information.
Having played in two games since the victory over Goshen, Krolicki's total now stands at 2,350 career points as of Jan. 8, 2018.
