The 5-9 point guard from Poway, California became the Pac-12 all-time leading scorer back in December when she tallied 44 points against Boise State, bringing her point total to 2,759 at the time.

| Player | School | Points |
| Kelsey Plum | Washington | 3,007 |
| Chiney Ogwumike | Stanford | 2,737 |
| Candice Wiggins | Stanford | 2,629 |
But now Plum could potentially add another record to her name, as the senior is making her way to the top of the list for the NCAA all-time scoring record, and could pass Jackie Siles who set the record in 2001. The senior is averaging 31 points per game.
