600 - The Game

[BenEClone]

Noted this interesting data from Cyclone Sidebar about the approaching 600 game 3 point streak:
"With a streak covering 19 years, there had to be a few games where it very nearly came to an end. Below are a few of those moments.
- Seven times Iowa State hit just one 3-pointer in a game, and of those seven, five were in the second half.
- The latest ISU knocked down a 3-pointer was with just 4:05 remaining in the second half when Julie Hand sank a trey in March of 1997 against Colorado. The 3-pointer was also the only make of the game for ISU."

Here's hoping there is no suspense, let's make 'em early and often. " Over the 600-game streak, Iowa State has drained 4,650 3-pointers for an average of 7.76 per game." The last few games have been an aberation. Did anyone see the shot by "Anne O’Neil, who hit a trey just 0:07 seconds into the first half at Kansas in January of 2005?"

I wonder what the NCAA record is. That's a pretty amazing feat.

Edit- just found out, for men, Princeton, UNLV, and Vandy have hit one every game since the three was allowed.

I was wondering if that was the game Wilkins hit ISU's only three, but it isn't. Mary Fox hit the only one in this game:

I thought this was in regards to the other 600:

Bill Fennelly is the head women's basketball coach at Iowa State University (ISU). He has an all time coaching record of 577-239 (thru 1/25/2014).

Really? I find that hard to believe.... especially the Princeton part. They are not known for their prowess shooting the three.....

UNLV is the overall leader, with 860 games (through Saturday).

ISU's 600 is the women's D-1 record. They've been on top since Feb 2011.
