Over her career, Clark has averaged 28.4 points per game. As a senior, she's averaged 31.9 points per game.
Clark previously sat behind former Iowa star forward Megan Gustafson for the program record. Gustafson scored 48 against Minnesota on March 2, 2018. But Clark's game against Michigan delivered her the single-game record.
Clark has been a consistent scorer her entire career. She's only once scored fewer than 10 points, posting just eight points in the 10th game of her career back in 2021. Over her tenure at Iowa, she's had a standard deviation of 7.7 points, meaning approximately 70% of all her games fall between 20.6 points scored and 35.9 points scored.
Here's a look at her game-by-game scoring distribution:
| Points | Games | Percent |
| Less than or equal to 10 | 1 | 0.8% |
| 11-15 | 3 | 2.3% |
| 16-20 | 16 | 12.0% |
| 21-25 | 28 | 21.1% |
| 26-30 | 38 | 28.6% |
| 31-35 | 29 | 21.8% |
| 36-40 | 7 | 5.3% |
| 41-45 | 9 | 6.8% |
| 46-50 | 2 | 1.5% |
Even beyond the impressive consistency, it's also remarkable that fans are more likely to see a performance in which she scores more than 40 points than a game where she scores 15 or fewer.
Clark has become the biggest star in college basketball, and it's clear by her career averages that she's nearly a guaranteed bet to put on a show whenever she takes the court.
