Audi Crooks' Dominance: 41 Points & Record Tie
2 Mar
Summary
- Crooks tied Brittney Griner's Big 12 record with five 40-point games.
- She is the nation's only women's player with multiple 40-point games this season.
- Crooks became the fastest Big 12 player to reach 2,000 career points.
Iowa State's Audi Crooks has demonstrated remarkable scoring prowess throughout the season. In a recent regular-season finale against Kansas State, Crooks recorded 41 points and 13 rebounds in just 30 minutes of play. This performance marked her fifth career game scoring 40 or more points, a feat that ties her with Baylor legend Brittney Griner for a Big 12 women's basketball record.
Four of Crooks's five career 40-point games have occurred during the current junior season, establishing her as the sole player in the nation with multiple such performances. Her scoring consistency was further highlighted earlier this year when she became the fastest player in Big 12 women's basketball history to reach 2,000 career points, achieving this milestone in only 89 games. As the Big 12 tournament and NCAA tournament approach, Crooks and her Iowa State teammates are poised for continued success.
