With 10 points in the first quarter in the Elite Eight against Indiana, UA women's basketball guard Aari McDonald has moved into third place on the Wildcats' all-time scoring list.
Her jumper with 4:19 in the first quarter helped her achieve the mark and McDonald scored 10 of the team's first 12 points against the Hoosiers.
McDonald's 1967 points in an Arizona uniform pushes her ahead of Dee-Dee Wheeler's 1966 points. The Wildcat point guard achieved the feat in 91 games compared to 124 from Wheeler who played at UA from 2002-05.
McDonald will finish her Arizona career third all-time as Davellyn Whyte's 2,059 points rank second and Adia Barnes hold the top mark with 2,237 points.
